Hello!
I've got an SME Server version 5.6 doing DHCP to clients and set up as server/gateway with a public IP address. I also have a Win2K box assigned with a private IP outside the DHCP range and it is the PDC. The SME has been properly assigned into the right workgroup, same as the rest of the clients and server.
I am able to create a new VPN connection on a WXP client that authenticates with no problems. The connection is a ADSL with a static WAN IP. I've done nothing to the ADSL modem and I'm able to connect. The problem is this:
1. The connection stays up, yet it seems to "time out" in the sense that I can no longer ping any private IP on the remote network nor can I access the server-manager via https. Occasionally, it will "wake-up" and flow downstream but then will stop.
2. I cannot see my domain on the remote LAN. I've tried the Domain logon in the VPN properties but no luck. I've gone as far as creating a user on the Win2K box that has identical username/password configuration to see if it worked, but nothing.
Can anyone help?
Thank you!
