RE: [Vtun-Users] VTUN for Windows?

[Vincent B. R. <vr...@cy...>]

To answer this, I need to explain a bit more of my project.  So here we
go.

The XBox cannot load software so I need it the tunnel to be running on a
Windows PC (preferably Windows 2000 since it supports RAW sockets) with
two network interfaces (one for the internet and the other for the Xbox
Lan interface).

Here's what we need to enable XBOX network gaming :

[XBOX 1] - IP : 0.0.0.1 (or whatever it uses)
   |
   | (ethernet for UDP or IPX or whatever it uses)
   |
[XBOX 2] - IP : 0.0.0.2 (or whatever it uses)

*********************************************
And here's my idea of internet gaming setup :

[XBOX 1] - IP : 0.0.0.1 (or whatever it uses)
   |
   | (ethernet)
   |
[PC 1 Interface 1] - IP : 0.0.0.2 (or whatever on same LAN as Xbox)
 - software LAN bridging through IP tunnel over Internet
[PC 1 Interface 2] - IP : whatever (internet ip address)
   |
   | (internet)
   |
[PC 2 Interface 1] - IP : whatever (internet ip address)
 - software LAN bridging through IP tunnel over Internet
[PC 2 Interface 2] - IP : 0.0.0.3 (or whatever on same LAN as Xbox)
   |
   | (ethernet)
   |
[XBOX 2] - IP : 0.0.0.4 (or whatever it uses)

*******************************************
So the software would be running on the two PCs connected to the
internet.  It would enable the bridging between the two XBOX LANs,
effectively creating a single LAN over the Internet.

I hope this clears things up.

Does the XBOX run WinCE? You might be better off using PPTP or IPSec.
