Re: Seeing Clients between VPN Routers

Thank you Todd,

Just to be clear:
Site A is using Sever 2003(all data stored here)192.168.201.xxx
Site B has no sever and get DHCP from the router.192.168.3.xxx addresses

I will need to replicate WINS at site B with the Server address being the
Server 2003(192.168.201.xxx)? Is that correct?

It is possible to just turn it on, on one of the XP desktops or a dedicated
PC. If dedicated how fast should it be?

On a side note: would the non-replication of WINS cause some network
slowdowns on the remote site?

Thanks again for your help.
