How to add VPN user? 1

[panuvin]

Hello, I've just joined a company with a severely disorganized network and domain setup. What I know is we have a Windows 2000 SP4 Server currently running with a domain and VPN. I would like to know how to add myself as a user to the VPN. Do I do this through one of Win2k Server Administrative Tools or through some other device? Thanks so much!

Hi,

You have to ask your Domain Admin to give you permission.

I am the domain admin, that's why I asked the question! ...I know, not a very good sysadmin... but, again, that's why I asked the question =)

Go to AD and check the allow dial-in or VPN access under the Dial-In tap in your user properties. You can add static IPs for the VPN also. It depends what VPN your company has, if it's a Win2K VPN server, then the steps above will work and u can VPN to the network with your regular username and password. If it's a router VPN, then you will have to look at the configurations in the router.
