Wingate upgrade from 3.0.4 to 5.0.7

[tthompson]

I am attempting to upgrade 2 servers from Wingate 3.0.4 to 5.0.7. Due to the services these servers host (Internet sharing, FTP server and VPN) I setup a test server on one of the networks to ensure everything on the production server worked correctly on the test machine. In then installed Wingate 5.0.7 over the existing version, and didn't install the VPN, turned off the mail server and did not secure wingate services.

The first test I tried after doing the upgrade, was to use a browser from a client via the Wingate machine. The client still has the proxy settings applicable to the previous version of Wingate. I could not get the client to connect to any web sites. It would say connecting to 192.168.1.4 (the test wingate machine) but then timeout.

The firewall is blocking my connections, and when I turn the firewall off, my clients can connect. Obviously I don't want to do this.

Any ideas what the problem is likely to be. I haven't tested FTP, VPN or email as yet!!

Are you using Internet sharing as well as WinGate ENS? This will cause problems...

Otherwise I am not quite sure how you are set up there.

We are not using internet sharing. Wingate is installed on NT server and Wingate provides internet sharing.

Everything worked fine until I did the upgrade, and after the upgrade, internet sharing using Wingate only works when the firewall is disabled...
