I'm having the worst time configuring my own VPN
solution. I've tried everything. I've read all
the MS White Papers, I've search the Net over and
read countless articles, but nothing
works.
My ISP (Roadrunner) as far as I've
read from their info allows VPN communication (GRE
and the like). I'm using Windows 2000 Server with
RAS configured for VPN. I have a LAN with a
Linksys router as the gateway from my LAN to the
roadrunner network(Internet). I have two NICs in
the Win2K server machine. I've tried to have one
card for the LAN and one for the VPN
traffic(although I've tried to route it through
one NIC as well). I've changed the both the
server and client settings hundreds of times, but
I just can't get it going. I'm using Windows XP
for client connections.
Any help would be
greatly appreciated. |

J, Are you NATing the
Public VPN traffic
through the firewall back
to your server? Does
VPN work inside the LAN
but not through the
firewall? If so you
have not configured the
firewall yet. Also
remove the second NIC
That will cause you all
sorts of problems in the
future.
