Re: FN-FORUM: SBS2003 VPN Setup

You can't do SBS standard VPN with one NIC - it uses RRAS, which needs
two interfaces.

You need a router with a VPN endpoint or VPN server, or put in a second
NIC.

For OWA you'll need port 80 and 443, 444 for Sharepoint, and for RWS
4125. PPTP VPN is 1723 and protocol 47 (GRE) - not a port.

Use the wizard.

Hi,
I'm having trouble setting up a VPN connection for SBS2003 Standard
Edition.

I've got a Netgear Router and I've opened the following services;

VPN-IPSEC, VPN-L2TP and VPN-PPTP. These all map the IP address of the
machine that I'm trying to VPN from to the SBS2003 server on 192.168.0.2

My internal network has fixed IP addresses

I've only got one network card in the server (on 192.168.0.2)

I just need the VPN to allow me to authenticate against my standard user
account and to give out a fixed IP address as if I'm on the network.
I'll then work out about OWA later !

This is in readiness for me implementing the same system at a client as
one of their staff is moving and going to be working from home. The
short-term solution is to let them use terminal services but they're
intending to get them a laptop to run their accounting (Sage Line 50)
over the network.


Cheers

Andy
