Hello all,

I am preparing to set up a major VPN for next month and I would just like some input on what I will need to do to get it up and running. I will give a detailed description of the company's network.

The company is a province wide company. They have a central server running Windows 2000 Server and 7 other locations throughout the province, each of them running on their own internal networks with Windows 2000 Server set up at each of the 7 locales.

What they want to be able to do is VPN each remote site with the central server site. They will be using Cisco PIX 506 routers at each remote site and a Cisco PIX 501 router at the central server site.

The thing I really need to know is the configuration for each router, and any input you may have on the best way to set up the VPN... I was thinking of making each remote server a VPN client and then sharing the connection to the rest of the computers at that location... any ideas or critisim is greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot everyone!

Curtis
