Hello!
If I create a user in active directory in windows 2003 server, we can
login to that user using windows xp login dialog box within the network
giving username and password after joining the domain! Okay, my question
is
that can we login to that user sits in the windows 2003 server in active
directory over the internet?
YES, if you have routed access, including on all the correct ports
and you can resolve DNS from the point of view of an INTERNAL
user (that is from the Internal DNS server.)
The issue is NOT the Internet per se, but rather firewalls, routing,
and DNS resolution.
In order to do that we have to join the domain.
Is it possible to join a domain over the internet and login to that user
in
windows 2003 server? I mean without VPN or RRAS or TERMINAL SERVICES?
VPN/RAS makes it a bit easier since this can alter the DNS
setting during such connections to favor the "remote" DNS.
Terminal Services largely bypass the issues by placing the
user logically "at the TS".
Also if
I use VPN, does that help me to save files to windows 2003 server after I
log
in to that?
It's neither HELPS you nor HURTS you. You can do anything within
reason over a VPN you can do locally IF your connectivity and name
resolution are equivalent to a LAN User (and if timeout issues don't
interfere which is not usually the case.)
