We have a small network set up behind a Sonic Systems SOHO 50 firewall(for NAT and filtering). We have one Windows 2000 server that contains all our network file shares and does DNS and DHCP. It has two network cards in it.
I would like to set up a VPN for our remote cable modem sites so they can share files on our lan. All the remote sites have win 98 SE. So far I have not had any luck connecting to the server through the VPN. I can ping the publicly available IP address, but when I try to make a VPN connection it times out.
I have looked over quite a few Microsoft web sites and the articles here on tech net, but none of them are specific enough to help me. I also have two books that tell me to set up the VPN two different ways. One is “Windows 2000 Routing and Remote Access Service” by Kackie Charles and the other is “Mastering Windows 2000 Server” by Mark Minasi.
Any help is appreciated.
