Heb je een KPN abonnement in combinatie met een BlackBerry Enterprise Solution (BES) flat fee data plan en het volgende werkt niet bij je?

- Google Maps
- Gmail

Neem even de tijd en bel 1200 en zeg dat je email push en Internet Browsen werkt maar andere applicaties zoals Google Maps niet. Na 30 minuten aan de telefoon met de KPN klantenservice en een restart van mijn BlackBerry Curve 8310 werkten deze tools ;-).

De vraag was doorgezet naar een tweede lijns medewerker en die heeft iets op mijn sim kaart veranderd; het is niet duidelijk wat maar wel een juiste oplossing. Hoera ik heb nu 100MB fail use per maand op mijn BlackBerry en niet alleen email en browsen maar nu ook Gmail.

Recently I was troubleshooting a Cisco VPN client issue. Cisco VPN client version is 4.0.5 and installed on a Windows XP SP2 client with all recent Windows Security updates. After you installed and configured the client you may experience same problem as I did when GPO was configured to enable the Windows Firewall when not connected to Active Directory domain.

VPN Client: Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by the Client. Reason 414: Failed to establish a TCP connection.

Enable transparent tunneling was enabled  with IPSec over TCP port 10000 to the Cisco VPN concentrator. I changed it to IPSec over UPD and even disabled the transparent tunneling but still same result when connecting. I googled and found one KB article from Microsoft.

Update to permit the Cisco VPN Client program to work in TCP transport mode in Windows XP SP2

After you install a pre-release version of Windows XP SP2, if you configure Cisco VPN Client version 4.0.3.D to use Internet Protocol security (IPSec) over TCP, you receive the following error message when you try to connect to a Cisco VPN concentrator:

Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by the Client. Reason 414: Failed to establish a TCP connection.

This problem occurs because the TCP/IP protocol is changed to drop any packets that are directed to the loopback IP address, but that arrive on an interface other than the loopback interface. Because the Cisco VPN client sends packets to the loopback IP address, but the packet comes from a physical interface, the packets are dropped.

I reviewed my Windows Firewall and it was enabled.

I stopped the windows firewall with “cmd /k sc stop sharedaccess” and than I tried to reconnect again. The connection worked without any message and I had connection to my office network. After reading the KB article and stopping the firewall I realized we forgot to add the Cisco VPN client exception in the Active Directory GPO.

Since two weeks I am becoming Ubuntu fan and I am missing some of my windows applications. Nero is one of those and thanks to Nero they ported their burning solution for Linux also. Download the trial from Nero.com website here.

Start a  new terminal session and run dpkg to install the Linux version of Nero Burning Rom.

Go to Applications / Sound & Video/ Nero Linux and start the burning solution.

Pretty straight forward; right? Think about when installing Nero on Windows ;). First we have this 100MB+ installation source and than install the complete suite of tools; with Linux installation I get what I want.
