Hi I had a VPN connection (XP built-in, not Cisco) working perfectly in Win XP with RC2. After I installed the Final Release of Parallels the VPN connection doesn't work. It just time-out's when checking username & password. Can anyone point me towards a solution? The VPN is very important to me because I use the connection in my daily work. Thank you /Martin
Can anyone from Parallels support please help on this. I've used the search function, nothing helpful has come up. I have bought the final release of parallels workstation and would really like some help on this. Thanks /Martin
Martin, I don't think there were changes in release that may affect VPN from XP. I would look more closely at what else might have changed since you've used RC2. How's your VM network configured? Bridged? Host-Only w/ IS? Can you browse the web for ex. before you connect the VPN? Things that may affect you VPN connection: - VPN server configuration has changed (including keys/passwords) - Your IP address/network has changed - OSX/Windows firewall settings changed
Thank you for your reply serv. I use bridged networking and I haven't changed that since the RC2 release. I tried disabling the Windows firewall and the OSX firewall, still doesn't work. I can browse the web and everything else, it's just the VPN connection that doesn't work. I checked with the VPN server and nothing has changed there. Same keys/passwords. Nothing has changed, except me installing the final release. It was one of the first things I tried. RC2 installed, VPN worked. Downloaded and installed the final release, VPN didn't work, right after the installation. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks /Martin
