Hi:
Thanks a lot for your post.
However, can I enable L2TP (which is more secure) for the VPN on an SBS 2003
Premium R2 with only one NIC? Your post only talks about PPTP.

Hello Customer,.
Thank you for posting here.
According to your description, I understand that you want to know whether
you can enable VPN on SBS 2003 R2 with single NIC. If I have misunderstood
the problem, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Based on my research, we can enable VPN on SBS 2003 R2 with single NIC.
There is no difference with SBS 2003 and SBS 2003 R2 at this point. I
suggest we try the following steps to achieve this goal:
1. Run CEICW on SBS
You have to rerun the CEICW to make sure your SBS 2003 server have right
network configuration. Go through the follow KB and Rerun CEICW again
carefully.

2. Run Remote Access wizard
a) On the Small Business Server 2003-based server, click To Do List in the
left pane of the Server Management console.
b) Under Network Tasks, click Configure Remote Access.
c) Click Next, click Enable Remote Access, click to select the VPN Access
check box, and then click Next.
d) Type the fully qualified public domain name (your public DNS name) of
your server, click Next, and then click Finish.
e) When the wizard is completed, click Close.
3. Then you can access RWW to download Connection Manager or copy the file
from SBS server c:\ ClientApps\Connection Manager\SBSPackage.exe. Please
save the sbspackage.exe file in VPN client computer. Then double-click
SBSPackage.exe to run it. After this file run the "connect to small
business server" will be created and you can use it to connect VPN to your
SBS server.
Additional, if you have router or firewall before the SBS, the firewall or
router must be able to pass Generic Route Encapsulation (GRE) protocol 47
and TCP 1723 port for PPTP traffic to connect correctly to use VPN. When a
cable/DSL router/firewall cannot map GRE protocol 47 and TCP 1723 port to
the Routing and Remote Access server, you cannot connect to the server from
the Internet. Therefore, please confirm that you have forward TCP 1723 and
GRE 47 to SBS. For more info and detail steps, please contact your firewall
vendor for help.
I hope these steps will give you some help.
Thanks and have a nice day!
Best regards,
Terence Liu(MSFT)
