Bingo. Scooby is running IPV6 aka Teredo Tunneling. Remove that.
<http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/fix-network-problems-but-clean-up.html>
http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...-clean-up.html

If any more problems, rerun "browstat status" and "ipconfig /all" from each
computer, and post all new results.

Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.
My email is AT DOT
actual address pchuck mvps org.

is there any other way around it? This is the VPN dial in connection I use
for work so if I remove it, I cant remote access work from home?

thanks for the help so far

So you actually use IPV6 for the VPN?

yes for highspeed secure VPN connection to work, it is a client with no
configuration tabs, maybe there is a better one? Or is the netbios and dhcp
disabled always for this type of vpn access? I was hoping maybe there is a
way to disable it when I'm not using is so my home network would work

Well, this is a first. I have personally experienced the IPV6 / Windows
Networking problem twice - once before the problem was widely reported, and once
after (to verify that it really is a problem). Microsoft claims that IPV6 and
Windows Networking is compatible. All I know is that, every time someone writes
a problem report here, and IPV6 is found in their "ipconfig /all" log, removing
IPV6 makes the symptoms go away.

Up to now, the fact that removing IPV6 removes the symptom is final - IPV6 is
usually installed by accident, or when someone wanted to play with it. You're
the first person who has actually had a business need to keep IPV6.

I suspect that this problem will not be resolved under Windows XP - Microsoft is
simply too busy working on Vista. And TCP/IP under Vista is totally different,
so there's nothing gained either way.

Do you actually need to do file sharing, on your local LAN, with a computer also
involved in a VPN relationship? That would sound to me one like one of the
fears that I have had, for a while, with regard to corporate networks connected
by VPN to LANs that they can't secure.

The one guy in Microsoft that I talked to at any length claims that the IPV6
uninstall, resolving the symptom, is incidental. A re install of IPV6, after
the symptom is resolved, will allow both IPV6 and Windows Networking to work
together.
# Un install IPV6 temporarily.
# Verify that Windows Networking works.
# Re install IPV6.

In addition to my rambling post immediately previous, you might look at "Check
Point SecuRemote". Some folks have noted that their VPN / Windows Networking
problems have been resolved by configuring the firewall attached to the VPN
properly.

maybe it was installed by mistake, I uninstalled the secureclient thing but
the IPV thing is still there, where do I find it, I looked under add and
remove programs and also under start menu programs and couldnt find it, I
probably dont need it

Thanks
