I have an internal net (192.168.x.x) from which I want to access, over the internet, an another private network which is protected by a Raptor Firewall and VPN.
Doy you know how can I achieve that?

Up to this point I have tryed in two different ways:
1. A raptor Mobile Raptor Client installed on a Windows 2000 server with 2 network cards. One network card is used to have access to internet and the other to the internal network. After Raptor mobile connects to the remote GAteway I can ping the remote private network from the server, but this does NOT work from any other workstatins inside my network.
2. I have installed a Raptor VPN server on the same Win2000 server and configured a Site to Site tunnel. Unfortunely this didn't worked either. After configuring the S2S tunnel how can I start this connection. The documentation is not wery well defined. And more then that. After installing the Raptor VPN server I could neither browse the server from the workstations any more nor to print on the printer attached to that server.

Any help would be highly apreciated!
 
I think I know why your solutions did not work:

1. I think that when you connect to the other site with your VPN client, the client(server with the VPN client) does not allow you to route through it to the other site.

2. Raptor automatically shuts down numerous Windows services, one being file/print sharing, when it starts up.

Have you tried doing step 1 but instead of the VPN client on the server, put it on one of the PCs on the internal network?

 
Hi lanceja,
thanks for answering me. Regarding the last question: "Have you tried doing step 1 but instead of the VPN client on the server, put it on one of the PCs on the internal network?"
Yes I've did that and it works. The problem is that if doing so only one workstation can be connected at a time. Installing Raptor client on the server was made with the hope that I can share that connection to all the worstations.
