Site to Site VPN connection

[Kyup]

I have set up a router-to-router VPN connection using Windows 2003 RRAS between a Main and Branch office. The Main Office has 3 other networks. From the Server at the Branch Office i can ping all addresses at the Main Office and from the server at the Main Office i can ping all addresses at the branch office. I have added static routes to enable this. I cannot however do this from the client machines at either end. Please help.

First make sure any firewalls are off or configured to let the traffic through. Next if that isn't it then make sure your DNS is working correctly and all your clients are receiving the correct DNS.

I guess your vpn server is not your default gateway. Add static route on other gateway to use your RRAS server for other subnet

Thank you all for your responses. I have figured out the cause of the problem and it was very silly. The name of the connection must be the same as the account that you are dialing in with or else the traffic is not routed.

Are you sure??? I use different connection name to connect to different server but use same account
