My senario is I have 1 W2k server and a couple of other pc's connected to the BEFVP41. The W2Kserver has 2 network connections to the BEFVP41 (I was told I need this to setup VPN on W2k. The 2 other PC's are used to connect out to the internet. Howver I also now want a couple of remote users to access the W2k Server. I have 1 fixed IP address.

What is best and achivable for the remote users to connect to the w2k machine, Do I need to set up VPN tunnels in the BEFVP41 or can I configure the remote users to tunnel through the BEFVP41 to access the W2k machine where I can setup a vpn system build into W2k.

then you could open ports on the router to access the Win2000 without the need for VPN connections.

If ever you wanna access VPN, here are some configurations that might help you:
