Re: Remote Desktop Connection to branch network failing



No I'm connecting through our office LAN to a branch site. I can
connect via PPTP to the remote servers from a workstation on the local
network but this is only by setting up a workstation-based VPN which
uses the remote RAS server as the default gateway. I have to use the
same setup at home to get to the remote network which blocks me from
the net.

I connect into the office via a VPN so I can't set up a second VPN on
my XP Pro machine at home. The office machines are a mixture of W2k sp4
and XP Pro sp2 machines. none can connect.

We're trying to hook up our workstations to a branch site. I've set up
a connection one the server as a persistant connection to the branch
via VPN (L2TP) which is connected fine. This I've done under RRAS as a
new interface.

I can connect to the two servers on the remote network using RDC but
only from the server. I cannot connect from any of the workstations on
my home network.

I have set up static routes to the two servers I need and these are
directed to use the branch interface.

I'm totally stuck as to why these aren't working. If I tracert one of
the remote servers from a workstation I can reach the server but then
the connection times out.

Any and all help most appreciated.

Mike
