SBS VPN Strengthening



Hi All,

Have SBS 2003 along with Server 2003 at various sites, a question I am
getting asked more and more is:

Can we have IPSEC VPN possibly with Certificates for authentication
(thinking L2TP here).

So the Q is.

How straightforward and what needs to be done at both the server side and
the client side.

Particularly if the client PC never directly connects to the Server network
as they are miles from the install site.

How to get the certs to the clients etc.

Have a think along these lines and lets have a thorough HOW TO on this.

PPTP is just a dead duck now and far too hackable.

I dont want to implement 3rd party router solutions and would much rather
use the MS RRAS server etc.

Thanks for your thoughts

TT
