TCP/IP error HOST_NOT_FOUND when trying to connect using VPN

Posted on by AzJames

I wish to setup a VPN connection to NAV 5.1.

I can connect to the network using the VPN, but when I use the client to try and open the database I get errors. I use the same database settings as I do on a local machine.

I have tried to use the ip address of the NAV server and I get a time-out in an attempt to establish connection with the server.

I then tried to use the server name (like I usually do for computers on the domain) but I get an error of TCP/IP error host not found.

I do have the ability to open a remote desktop on the server, but I only want to use the database like I do on local computers.

I have the same question (0)

Hello,

Could be a firewall issue. Please do note that Microsoft support does no longer support this out of life cycle release.

Thanks.
