HI, I have been trying to set up a remote desktop or VPN connection to A windows 2003 server sbs for some time now. The following is the network layout.
2 Servers:
Server No.1 Windows 2003 SBS with exchange and sharepoint- used as a email server.
Server No2: Windows 2000 server with Terminal Server – a stock control program is running on this with internal workstations logging onto it using remote desktop connection port 3389.
Serve No 1 is what I am trying to log on to. Mcafee Total protection is installed without firewall capability.
Sonicwall model tele3pi is connected to a 3com switch ( no router installed on the network). Broadband provided through a netopia Carmen 3304 router provided by the ISP. i have opened the port 3389 on both the sonicwall firewall and the netopia router. I have setup a dynamic dns with dyndns.com as my ISP does not provide this facility. Could you please assist if setting up a VPN is easier and does not conflict the port 3389 being used by the internal terminal server application ( which I think could be the problem, I don’t know) the n could you provide me with a set of steps to achieve this.
Your knowledge would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Merlin
