RE: VPN Connects, but no Internal IP or network resources.

Charlie and Rolfs00,

I have a W2k3 server with ISA2000. I was having the same problem of not
getting any internal IP addresses unless I set up a static IP address field.
Charlie is correct in that manner that you will have to choose the Internal
adaper to look for the DHCP server.

Now the problem I am still having is that once I get connected I still
cannot browse the network or get access to any resources. Most of the
documentation I have found deals with connecting and getting connected with
client to server or server to server. I havent found much on getting
connected but unable to use network resources.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Any and all help is welcome.. :) Thank you.
