Title: is it possible to route through a windowsxp PPTP VPN??
Post by: albatroz on December 13, 2004, 11:30:49 PM

LAN ---> WINDOWSXP <--->INTERNET (PPTP VPN)<----> CC BOX <--Remote LAN

I wonder if some has tried connecting a windowsxp box via PPTP
to a CC Box and then use the routing features (hidden but existant) in
windows xp for allowing the whole LAN access the remote LAN.

Should I require a second NIC in the windows xp computer?

"LAN ---> WINDOWSXP <--->INTERNET (PPTP VPN)<----> CC BOX <--Remote LAN "

So the WindowsXP box is the external gateway?
