LAN packets not routed by default gateway (with outpost pro)

[Marc]

Hi all,

I've a problem with my home network (2 Win XPpro PCs).
With the (default) gateway PC it is no problem to connect to the internet. The other (network) PC can connect to the gateway PC (including http) and ping web servers in the internet but it is not possible to surf in the web. It seams that the packets can go out (first line in the log) but the http answer cannot come back (something like "blocked transit packets" in the second log line).
If the Outpost FW is off on the gateway PC the routing is fine and I can use the web from the network PC...

Both PCs running Win XP pro SP1 + all updates, Outpost v2.0.238.3121 (290) Family license
network PC: 10.0.0.42/255.255.255.0
default gateway: 10.0.0.10/255.255.255.0
and one from the Internet provider
The Internet connection on the gateway is done by AVM Blue Fritz ISDN (over Bluetooth to the telephone-ISDN-box)

What rule is missing or wrong? I tryed it with something like enable all for 10.0.0.42 (in and out)

Hi Marc,

Welcome to the forum. :)

Please take a look at this thread as the root cause of your problem may be similar.

Need of rule to pass LAN's ICQ requests out! (http://www.outpostfirewall.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=9479)

Basically, if Outpost is only on your gateway, then configure it to Trust the client PCs through the LAN Settings. Note that you may also have to add the IPs to the Ignore Hosts section of the protect.lst file located in the directory where you installed Outpost. Let us know if you need help making any of these changes.

Hi David,

it seams to be the same problem. I tried the hints already before I posted the first time. I'll switch over to the other thread and poste my files there.
