I have a Windows Server 2003 with eight XP clients all with IP Addresses 192.168.1.x.

They are connected to a patch panel and a 12 port Switch. They get their IP addresses from a Broadband router which issues them via DHCP.

The broadband connection is a 2MB connection. All clients have internet access.

I have a second site about 600 yards away with seven clients who are all connected to a patch panel and a switch and get their IP addy's from a Broadband router - all of the client IP addys are 192.168.1.x. All clients have Internet access.

How can I setup a VPN so that the client pc's in the second site can connect to the Windows Server 2003 in the first site and that their is a dedicted VPN between the two sites?

My apologies if this has already been asked in previous posts, I tried searching before I posted this.

Thanks

 
it was a strange one. I spent two days onto the helpdesk in India and everytime I called, their solution was to reset the Router to factory settings.

Eventually, I just clicked on enable PPPoE and it worked in seconds.

I just had to mess around with the vpn settings and that worked nearly straight away too.
 
Sweet, I hate DSL PPPOE will get you everytime. It is more fun to get A Cisco 2514 working across a cable modem.
 
At least I know how to do it for future reference - thanks to all for the replies
