Re: VPN clients unable to connect to other resources.

The XP Pro clients are connecting to the SBS 2003 server. I did use the
wizard to setup remote access. The clients connect to the server and can
access the server shares and so forth. The IP of clients when they connect
is 192.168.2.XXX matches the subnet of the 2003 server. I find it strange
that the IP and Gateway match the on the network IP given by the DHCP server.
I need the VPN because we have a sonicwall device that will backup client
laptops on the network via VPN access. I can't ping the sonicwall device nor
the gateway. I need the VPN to work for the device to pick-up the CDP data
protection for the remote clients this rules out the RWW.

Are you using the SBS as the VPN end point? If your SBS and your local
client PCs are on 192.168.2.x, your remote clients should be getting an IP
address from the DHCP server on the SBS that's in the 192.168.2.x subnet.

If you haven't already, I'd go to the Server Mgmt Console, Internet page,
and run the Configure Remote Access wizard. Not sure that'll fix this, but
it's a start.

Do you need VPN for some reason? If not, why not use RWW instead?

XP Client machines that can successfully connect to the SBS 2003 server
via
VPN cannot access other shares or network resources outside of the SBS
2003
server. After connecting to the VPN server the IP assigned from the
server
matches the gateway on the DHCP assigned address from the server.

IP 192.168.2.57
Gateway 192.168.2.57

I can ping and connect to the server 192.168.2.25 but I can not ping the
true gateway 192.168.2.1 nor ping any other machine on the subnet. The IP
scheme of the XP Client machines are 192.168.1.XXX so I'm pretty sure this
is
not an issue. I think there is a route problem or misconfiguration on the
VPN
server. I'm wanting to be able to let the XP client access other shares on
a
couple different locations 192.168.2.250 and 192.168.2.225. Thanks for
your
feedback and assistance.
