Whoaaaa.... What on earth requires you to change your server internal IP ?????????????? The server is the BOSS, surely what ever it is can be changed...
Please elaborate why and maybe can offer alternative... I would be concerned something needs to require me to change the Boss seetings...
In answer to your question re running internet connection wizard would be the last thing to do.... but seriously... Why ?
As is often pointed out, if a VPN is in use or expected to be,
whether to SBS or site-to-site, the LAN subnet must be different
from all other connected subnets. This makes 192.168.0. and .1.
poor choices, along with anything else that a commonly-used
router will default to. I would assume that the OP has
discovered this, and needs to change the LAN.
Ideally one might change all the potential remote routers, but
this may not be trivial for some users, and to use your analogy,
one of those users might well be the boss. An SBS might be a big
fish in its little pool of XP workstations, but it doesn't rate
much among management, only slightly higher than the IT staff.
I know of a situation where a company signed up to a 'business'
broadband deal, 12 months minimum, and were given a router with
a *fixed* LAN IP address. No option at all but to reconfigure
the network if they wanted to avoid throwing away the money.
