    VPN, Windows 2000 Server and a Linksys BEFSR41

    I'd imagine what worked under NT4 should work the same. make sure the user has dial-in permissions, and make sure dialed-in clients have access to the entire network rather than the server. have fun!

    error 781 when trying to connect to a Win2k VPN server...

    AOL 6.0, Win2kserver, Linksys BEFSR41

    Does you AOL connection get drop every 5 - 10 minutes when you are *not* using the VPN? If not, are you using different usernames/passwords to access resources on the network?

    Linksys BEFVP41 VPN problems

    once you have the VPN router configured according to the Linksys manual, you should be able to set the Win2k client up according to the documentation provided by Linksys, or search Microsoft's website. If you still can't find it, I can send my documentation to you. Bear in mind if you have a...

    DNS Problems (As always)

    have you tried pinging your website to see which IP it returns? try that from within the network and outside (through a ISP). does the event log give you any leads? haven't tried Ms DNS. I used BIND for NT, which works quite well.
