I'm installing SBS 2003 R2. I want to provide remote access to an application running on the server. I had thought I could provide remote connection via VPN. Our software vendor tells me I must have Terminal Services on a separate server. They say that using VPN is hazardous and would only allow two simultaneous connections. Is this so?

Thanks Guys.
I thought I'd cracked it when I forlornly tried to connect using **.**.**.***/remote from a remote machine and suddenly I was in! Great - all seemed to work fine untill I installed a bunch of Microsoft updates which seemed to kill it off. I uninstalled all the updates I could and back came the connection only to suddenly fail again for no apparant reason :-( Any ideas??
Thanks for reading this.
