| Dear All,
How could we deny access form the outside networks in order not to gain access to our internal PCs if the users try to use the GoToMyPC service?!!

| Dear All,
I found by several testes that the GoToMyPC server [service installed] always sends an outgoing HTTP "ping" to the GoToMyPC broker (poll.gotomypc.com) at regular intervals checking to see if any connect requests have been received.
So the solution to prevent the GoToMyPC broker from accessing our company’s computers is by blocking access to the host GoToMyPC Broker.
This will prevent anyone from starting a connection to access any computer inside our firewall [The protected LAN].
Name: poll.gotomypc.com
Address: 66.151.158.177
Using a simple outbound ACL will do the job,
Also, GoToMyPC will help us to block our Internet-visible IPs [Real IPs]. They already have a policy for companies who do not currently have GoToMyPC accounts but wish to block access using their Authorization Management Service, simply we have to send a request to the following email address: GoToSales@expertcity.com.

| Not to sound obtuse, but was this really an issue for you? What type of firewall are you using if any? | |
|
| Dear bt,
I'm using PIX, and it was an issue that i faced, because as you might know that the connection is established from inside to outside from the PIX using allowed ports..

| Tamer,
That makes more sense. I thought your issue was people from home connecting to work PC's. |
