Scenario:
SonicWALL internet appliance
Novell Server with TCP/IP, latest version
Windows 2000 Professional pc or Windows 98 PC

Once the VPN is setup on the remote PC (W2k or W98), I can ping to the corporate network beyond the SonicWALL to computers that are inside the corporate network but not the Novell Server. The ping returns a "request timed out." Where should I start looking in order to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance

You're on the right track. Start pinging things one step further, until you get no reply. Try doing this from both sides, so on the NetWare server ping its gateway, then the router, and so on. Maybe simply the NWserver hasn't got the correct gateway, which means he may very well receive your Pings, but doesn't know how to answer.

That is what I surmised. The Novell server is managed by someone else, and I have suggested to him to check tcpcfg and the gateway. Thank you for the response.
