Hi,

New to VPN's...
Can you connect to a Workgroup network via a VPN?

I haven't found anything that says no, but I haven't found anything that says yes either.

I want to connect to our small network at work which has been configured as a Workgroup and not a Domain.



Thanks in advance,
Aaron
 
Yes you should be able to connect to a workgroup, but there are a few considerations. You will need either a static IP or some sort of way that a client can find you in the internet, and a host for the connection, server or router... Matt Wray

Now that I think about it, I think you would have to use a router solution, since there is no domain to log into... Could be wrong tho.. Matt Wray
