Re: PLEASE HELP-Router to RRAS Problem

Hi again,

The config i am using is Local LAN start IP address (SBS router) is
192.168.0.3, with SM of 255.255.255.0 and Local LAN start IP address (Remote
router)192.168.2.3, with SM of 255.255.255.0 which are different subnets. I
am now at the remote office and will not leave until i get this sorted (may
be a while!)

I have looked again and have a VPN established and verify that by logging
into both routers to confirm.

This does seem like DNS or static routing from SBS2003 end to me as i can
ping the first IP on the remote router (192.168.2.x) but cannot ping the
first available on the SBS router (192.168.0.x)

Any thoughts?

Thanks so much

This is replicated on the Remote router end

and 192.168.0.3 (Remote IP) with 255.255.255.0 Subnet masks."

Again, you must not, and cannot, use 192.168.0.__ as the private / internal
*subnet* in both locations. The VPN tunnel will not work. Change one of the
networks to something else, like 192.168.1.__ with 192.168.1.1 as the
internal-facing IP address on that Netgear.

Since you're so far away from the other office, it may be easiest to do it
on the SBS box by using theChange IP address wizard..... but someone in the
other office will have to do some work, or perhaps you can walk them through
it or have them ship the router to you so you can preconfigure it & send it
back.

I don't use a two NIC setup and don't see the value in it unless you're
using ISA; to me it adds additional complexity for minimal benefit. I prefer
decent firewall appliances. However, RRAS has nothing to do with this as
you're using a hardware-based VPN config, which is what I prefer to use too.

You might post an unedited ipconfig /all from your server...


Thanks again,

Hi,

The remote office is 40 miles away, which i will be leaving for
shortly to try and get this issue fixed :)

The remote lan can ping all on its subnet but the Main office
cannot ping anything on the remote site.

I have configured the VPN exactly in this link fro Netgear:
http://kbserver.netgear.com/kb_web_files/n101479.asp

It seems like there is nothing resolving as the machines have
Internet access but cannot see the SBS Network?

But you've not told me how you setup the details.

On each side, under TRAFFIC SELECTOR, what did you enter?

If you followed their setup, what specifically did you enter in those
boxes on BOTH sides?
