After knowing why my first problem with Trackmania occured, I do have a couple of others. One is with Ultra VNC which I use to check on my girlfriend´s PC when she has troubles. I still can connect to her PC with Ultra VNC but I can´t use the Filetransfer anymore. Somehow that seems to be blocked.
In the firewall logs on her PC is see that my LAN Ip (192.168.x.x) is blocked. I also can´t see her in the Windows Network we had between our PC´s anymore. Her PC is not showing up there anymore.
What do I have to do in Comodo to make that work again ? I appreciate any help.
Thank you in advanced.
The easiest way is to set up a network zone that encompasses all the IPs in your LAN (including your router) and then make two rules (one for IN and one for OUT) that allow traffic to/from this zone.
Thank you. Beeing new to this Firewall, I tried to do what you suggested. Not sure if that was right, because though I can now do Filetransfer with my gf´s PC with UltraVNC but within the WINDOW NETWORK i can´t even see her PC still. And she cannot access the HOME Network for whatever reasons. I did the same settings / rules on both our PCs. What did I do wrong ?
Your screenshots are contradictory. The left hand one shows only an IN rule, yet the right hand one shows the creation for an IN/OUT one. IMHO, you shoulod create tow rules, one for IN and one for OUT using the zone defined for your LAN. I prefer to have separate rules for IN and OUT as it can make it easier to troubleshoot.
The left is the ZONE i created for the LAN, there is no option i can see to make it as OUT. Its always IN in there, or I am blind, possible.
The second is the Rule that points then to the Zone. Yes, it is IN/OUT atm, and I know what you mean with better to separate, but the result should be the same. If its IN / OUT it should work never the less. In the Zone I added the IP Range that my router and our LAN IP´s go from → to.
I still don´t understand why we can´t see us in the WIN network and why my gf on her PC can´t even access the HOME Network (in which I can at least see myself, she can´t even access it to see herself in there!).
I am not so the Network expert, so I would be greatful if you could tell me what it is that is going wrong here.
Thank you so far, I appreciate the help.
Both PC´s are XP Pro. No “Asta la Vista, baby” (:LGH) (:LGH)
And I think the Problem is solved now. I had different settings / Rules than she had. I edited her´s to be the same than I had, and now it works. Windows Network, Ultra VNC and even Hamachi is fine now.
Thanks for the help. But still beeing new to Comodo I might be back with more questions.
Have a nice day.
