VPN Access with Win2K3 SBS

Clarifications

It depends on what you're trying to accomplish. If you need to get to a work station or if you need to get to a server. As long as you have admin rights you could us remote desktop to get to the server from any XP machine. That uses port 3389 I think. If you are trying to VPN in to the server to access a work station, then you'd need to give the workstation a public IP adress or route port 3389 from a public address to the internal static IP of that machine. If that's not possible try logmein.com. That uses HTTPS to connect to an internal machine and lets you control it remotely. If you have something more specific in mind post more details.

You can use Remote web Access feature within SBS. This has to be setup on the server and after that you can type in domainname\remote and use your Windows login credentials to get access to the server. you can even connect to your work desktop if it is running through this command.

try wallcooler VPN and remote access at http://www.vedivi.com. If you are after a VPN that goes through corp. firewalls (tunneling on port https:443). It's a great tool that gove VPN features (remote network access, servers , etc...) and you can use Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection or Remote Asisitance as your remote screen tool if you are just looking after a remote control tool.

Very simple to install and use. We use it here as our remote access solution for both ITs and Sales.

Good Luck,
