Hello,
I have been trying to set up a Win2k Professional VPN Server that is multihomed. I need two nic cards, one for my internal network and one outside the firewall. I have one set with a public IP address and the other with an internal address and when I look at my network through network neighborhood I can see all the computers, the ones inside the firewall and the few on the outside. The problem I am having is that when I try to log in from a remote location, with win2k Pro, I can login fine, but I can only see the couple of computers that are on the outside of the firewall. I can log, so I know that I am not having any problems with the router, well I don't think so, but I really need some help. I don't know if editing the address routing would help, but I am not sure what to change. I have the public address assigned through the gateway of the router and the internal card is not assigned with a gateway. I can even try the system with win 2k server if it is a must, but I don't want to spend the money if I don't have to. Please help. Thanks,
Rick
 
what IP address does your VPN adapter get after making the VPN connection ?
Can you ping the internal computers ?

If you are running a domain, you might want to
- stop the browser on the external network card of your Win2K prof. VPN server
- make sure the name of the workgroup of your remote client matches the name of the domain I have not failed, I just found 10000 ways that don't work
