iPhone VPN for using RDP

mactag
Hi,

I have successfully configured Remote Access using SSL and can Remote Desktop into my work pc from home.

I have also successfully configured L2TP overIPSec and made a successful VPN connection on my iPhone. However, when trying to use app Mocha Remote Desktop Lite the connection fails. I have tried it with an IP address and DNS name.

If I ping any pc at work from my iPhone  with a VPN connection I receive a 'No response from host' message.

I have attached screenshots of what I think are relevant screens. There are no DNAT/SNAT rules set up.

Please help this newbie

Thanks,
Mark.

    I've got passed that hurdle by creating a packet filter rule  'VPN Pool (L2TP) -> Any -> Any : Allow'.

    I can now see the packets going past in green to the server I am pinging and the DNS servers listed, however I'm still receiving a 'No Response From Host' with the iPhone ping app. I'm not seeing any packets in the log going the other way.

    All my servers and PC's have a gateway pointing to our layer 3 switch and connect to the Internet using the Astaro as a proxy. I'm guessing that the server receives the ping but has route back out to the iPhone. This setup does however work when I connect from home using the Astaro VPN client.

    Any further suggestions.

    Thanks,
    Mark.
