Cisco VPN Client 4.0.5

When I try to connect to the office using the firewall address



209.178.198.242, I get the error message "Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by the Client. Reason 403: Unable to contact the security gateway." I started having this problem since I changed the IP address of the firewall. Please drop me a word on how to fix this.

Thanks

"This usally means that there are no packets received from the IPSec gateway.

Might be a routing issue or a firewall/NAT issue.

Can you ping the gateway from the client?

Did you try to use "Enable Transparent Tunneling"?

The Cisco VPN client then uses UDP ( port 4500 ) to allow transport through a NAT device."

How do I ping the gateway from the client? The ping from my home PC to the gateway (PIX firewall) is successful.

No. How do I enable it?

How do I specify this in the PIX?

Many thanks for your help.

According to

The error message could be coming from incorrect login credentials. How do I find out the login and password? Please note that I am the administrator of this system. The office network has a firewall, router, a Windows 2000 server. Thanks
