ok, so I explained that badly...

public addy of the server 123.123.123.1 - private
192.168.20.40

public addy of the router 123.123.123.2 - no private

public addy of the firewall 123.123.123.3 - private
192.168.20.3

NAT is turned on on the firewall that changes the
123.123.123.1 to 192.168.20.40 (123.123.123.1 is also
configured as the addy on the second nic card, but isn't
truely functioning I don't think because all traffic is
routed to the local adapter (192.168.20.40).

I have since fixed part of my problem, I think and I
think I have ruled out issues with my setup on the server
itself, here is my latest situation...

So I wanted to make sure I had everything setup right on
the server, so I tried setting up the VPN connection on
the local network - which worked fine. I did some
tweaking to my firewall and am now getting the "Verifying
user name and password) before i get the nice 721 error -
which upon research shows I still have problem with my
firewall.

Firewall - Sonic Wall soho 3. Tier 1 support sucks, so I
have been waiting for like 2 hours for their tier 2 to
call back...anyone else have the same type of setup?
That help explain things better Phillip?
