Re: Windows 2003 interation between DNS and VPN

I had this exact problem with my network. It seems to be an authentication
issue. I was able to access all file shares on the file server itself, but
DFS shares gave an system error 5. The solution was to have the client
computers join the domain, instead of dialing the VPN once logged in, if you
check the "log on using dial up connection" when initially logging on the
client machine, it works fine.

Hope this helps.

OK, so I tried the VPN server on a completely separate machine. It is
part of the domain and has 2 NICs - one internal and one external.
Same OS - Windows 2003 Server with SP2. In essence, the machine is
configured just like a domain client, except it has two network cards
and RRAS.

I am having the same problem I had when RRAS was on the DC. The
external IP is simply not accessable. Can't ping and therefore no
clients from outside can get to it. It is accessable from the LAN
though.

Any ideas?

The internal card has the gateway and dns settings for the DSL router
(LinkSys). The external card has no gateway and the DNS of the ISP.
