Hello,
Please forgive me if I come to the wrong Forum. I don't know whether the problem I have is related to a)Windows Domain authentication b)VPN settings or c)Exchange settings. I am making the guess at the moment...
I have a W2K server as my DC and another W2K server as E2K server. These servers are in the office where I locate. The IP addresses for the Domain PCs are like 10.75.0.xx.
I also have serveral remote offices which are set as workgroup type LAN. Each remote office has IP addresses like 10.75.1.xx, 10.75.2.xx.
All pcs are running W2K Pro / XP Pro.
The goal is to have the remote PCs connect to the E2K server through Router/VPN (Cisco/Watchguard), using native Exchange connection (MAPI).
I have added E2K server and DNS server's IP addresses in "hosts" file. I have also added DC IP address in Primary DNS Server entry.
The problem is, when users opening the messages with attachments - say 130KB sizewise - it takes about 30 seconds to open the item up and the client pc freeze up frequently.
Could someone out there shed a light for me in terms of which direction should I follow for the troubleshooting please?
Thanks
