Hi guys,

I've recently set up a point to point network with my 2 home PC's and I'm using my remote PC to access the internet via the broadband connection on my host PC.

I'm using the standard IP settings ie: HOST 192.168.0.1 -REMOTE 192.168.0.2 and I have Kerio Firewall on my HOST machine.

I have entered my remote machines IP address into Kerio's trusted network settings but I can only access the internet from the Host machine if I switch off the firewall? File sharing between the 2 machines works ok with Firewall on.

I have used the IP adress/IP address+mask etc.. for the remote PC but I still cannot access the net with the Firewall running.

Any ideas you can throw my way are appreciated.

Cheers,

DaZ
 
It's possible your problem is caused by a conflict between kerio firewall and windows XP/2000's own internet connection sharing software (which has routing capabilities).
My suggestion is you upgrade personal firewall to winroute pro or winroute firewall, and turn of xp/2000's own internet sharing and let winroute do the internet sharing. winroute is also a very very good firewall.
