Hi all....like a bit less then a year ago i got new not understandable
problems with my vpn tunnel.
Yesterday, after some stupid troubles with ssl certificate, i've
upgraded my both zywall to last firmware (4.02 - WZ.1). At first seen
all seem to be good...but the day after i've received a call from
satellite office telling me that there were some problems on the net
(they can not browse the network, login is terribly slowlly, they can
not print and so on). So i was afraid by that...there was only a
unique explanation: the update of firmware!!!

So now i got theese problems:

In the main office, where there is the PDC (win2003) all work
well, i can ping remote computers using their local ip and with their
FQDN too, browse shared folders on all computers and so on.


In remote office

* i can conncet via RDC to all remote pc
* the ip configuration on all pcs is right, they recive ip,
subnet, gatway etc by zywall, first dns server is the local ip of my
PDC in the main office
* some remote computers, taking long time, reach my domain
browsing the network from explorer, but if i try to obtain the list of
all pcs in it, after another long time, i receive an error. Other pcs,
instead, see only computers in the remote office (so they can not see
server and all others computer in main office)
* if i try to ping machines in main office from remote all
packets are lost!...
* if i try to ping the server PDC using its name (always from
a remote computer) its able to translate name in ip but all requests
go timeout

I've no more ideas about this problem. It seems to be a problem on
ping permission, but in the vpn settings on both zywall i've set that
all protocols can go throw the vpn tunnel.

Plz help me!!
