I have set up a VPN. Everyone one connects fine. Recieves IP address. But after 20 seconds they are unable to connect to the share of a second PC. I have a had two pings going one to the VPN server and the second one to the Data/Share host. There arent any problems pinging the VPN server...

I am trying to set up a test network where the PDC has two network cards. Each one on a different subnet. Card 1: 192.168.1.100 Card 2: 192.168.4.1 I would like to assigne and DHCP scope to each on of the cards. Card 1 will be on 192.168.1.150-160 Card 2 will do 192.168.4.10-15 Does anyone...

To answer you question regarding your firewall yes it becomes useless as it only filters your in and out bound Internet traffic not what comes in from the AP. Just out of curiosity. The lease on this IP address, when does it run out? Can you delete it and then keep a track of it to see if it...

I also suggest WPA as stated by Grenage and to change the key once a month if possible. Just to one silly questions its not your actual access point?

Apparently WEP can be decrypted with about 5gig's worth of captured data. This makes it not as secure as people believe. If you have VLan capability I suggest you stick the AP point in a VLAN. Stick a second network card in your server. set that up for VPN and only have the VPN ports open (PPTP...

It is possible to have your PDC as the VPN server. One of the other reason i would suggest using a VPN is to make your whole system more secure. In terms of User Autentication and user access. If you run a terminal service over the internet with no encryption the user name and password travels...

I would use a vpn on a second nic for security reasons. I assume you dont want everyone to see what you are doing.

For ease of use. Get an IP camera. That way you to can get to watch what is going on they cost around 60-70 and picture quality is really good. With the IP camera you will be able to record them in your office or any other pc u choose to use.

You dial in i assume the connection works fine and you get a VPN/Network icon. Are you getting an IP address on you VPN connection? If not you have to set it up to issue IP addresses. You can use your current scope or get the RAS side of thing to issue IP addresses.

I was wondering are you able to ping anything when you connect with the VPN? Also have you sorted out your IP adresses?

My favourite is windows 2003 server with 2 nic's as it will dedicate one of the to the VPN ony traffic so no other ports are open apart the VPN ports.

Sorry all i can suggest is to post on the server support part of the forum.

Win2k server doing the VPN access will alow people in the domain to dial in if they have the correct permissions to do so. But for XP-Pro only local user are able to dial into the machine, even if the machine is part of a domain. If I remember right the ecryption is a bit lower on XP as well.

I assume it will be looking for the other domain controller? Is the VPN running at the time of the error message? As this would make it difficult to see the other domain. Also does each domain have each other in their DNS settings? As in IP setting DNS server?

do you have a sniffer software or logging ability? just to see how far it gets? Also look into any 3rd party firewall you are runnig in case it stops the vpn as its not on the local network.

What I have done on my system is: got a static IP and used port forwarding. So When i try to connect to my system I type in my outside (internet) IP address. The router then forwards it to the server where i authenticate. Look into which VPN you are using and look into what ports they use. Then...

Does your firewall do port forwarding? This way the VPN ports get forwarded to the appropriate machine. I would install a second nic that only uses the VPN ports.

I would recommend one DNS in each domain. Just in case the connection drops. This would also reduce (in theory) some of the network traffic. Dont foret to get the domains to trust each other and to replicate their dns.

Just to check have you updates all the DNS and gateway settings?

Sorry about the delay. When it display's parellel connections. Dont tick any just press next and then it gives you the von option.
