Running XP Pro at home now and the free
version
of ZoneAlarm. I've used Internet connection sharing in the past to
give
the other pc's on the lan access to the net.
I'm having problems with Zone Alarm blocking
requests from the lan PCs. On the XP Pro box, connected to the lan
and
with ZA installed whenever one of the lan PCs tries to get to the internet
an
alert similar to the following is triggered:
The firewall has blocked Internet access to
216.239.37.124 (HTTP) from your computer [TCP Flags: S].
Now - it doesnt tell me the app that triggers
it. I've granted full access to every request that comes in over the
lan
card (in ZA), and also hard coded the ip address of the lan machines
into
ZA. I've turned off XP's own firewall. However the
only
way that the lan machines can see the net is with ZA turned
off.
I think I've tweaked every setting on
it.
I'm lothed to turn it off completely as the amount of hits that it gets
implies its needed - and I dont really trust XP's own
firewall.
Any ideas what I have to do to allow the ICS
requests to transfer through the
firewall?
