Re: VPN connection to office

What's the VPN error code? Have you open port 1723 pointing to the RRAS?

Hi all!

My previous setup was a small LAN with SBS2K3 and two PCs, one of which was
connected to the Internet through dialup. I used the Network Connections Wizard to
define a VPN to the Office, giving it the public IP and other requested data. This was
working fine.

I have now upgraded (finally!) to COMCAST High Speed Internet. I added a Linksys
BEFSX41 router, so now my setup is as follows:

Cable modem --> router --> LAN

In the "LAN", I have one PC and a small 5-port Ethernet 10/100 switch connected
directly to the router. The SBS2003 and another PC are connected to the switch. I
cannot change this configuration. On the SBS2003 I configured the default gateway
to be the router and forwarded (if that is the correct term) the DNS IPs. All PCs are
connecting to the Internet correctly, but my VPN is no longer working.

What do I need to do to connect to the Office as I was before? Do I need to tweak
anything on the SB2003, or is this a router "thing"?

Thank you for your time and assistance :-)
