Re: Best way for 2 SBS networks to talk to each other



Unfortunately, VPN only allows forwarding to a single IP address, so your
SBS 2003 is taking up that role.

Merv,
Thanks for the reply. This is where it gets difficult I need VPN to the
SBS2k3 server as far as data type it will mainly be .pdf files and Excel
files for now. And yes they don't want the extra cost right now for the
additional static IP address. I didn't know if itn could be done with
using
ports at the router? Again thanks

Assuming you don't want to invest in a Dual WAN router and a second
static
(or dynamic) WAN IP for the SBS2K network, if you don't need inbound VPN
to
the SBS 2003 network, you could have your SBS2K remote users first
establish
a VPN to the SBS2K and then RDP to their individual workstations so that
all
work is contained on the SBS2K network for centralized access/backup. Of
course, this assumes that remote users have access to a dedicated
workstation on the SBS2K LAN. Stopping at just the VPN to the SBS2K may
also be an option, although less flexible in its features.

As for data transfer, that may be a bit more difficult depending on what
type of data needs to be transferred and whether this needs to be done
"automatically".

Hello all,
I know that 2 SBS servers cannot reside on the same network. I have 2
SBS
servers one SBS2k the other SBS2k3 on different networks sharing a
single
router to the internet. The SBS2k3 network has a web presences with a
static
IP address the SBS2k does not. I would like the 2 network to talk to
each
other in order to transfer data between them and possibly allow outside
field
people for company SBS2k to communicate with their network. How is the
best
way to do this? Company SBS2k doesnot want a static IP address. If you
need
further info let me know. Thanks in advance for your assistance.
