Topic: VPN Configuration

[Knuddi]

The setup you are looking for I have used for years with OpenVPN setup in routing mode. We have internal/LAN workstations running either Windows or Linux (CentOS) and we connect to them from home. The CentOS systems run a VNC server and I can from home connect to these without any problems from a VNC Viewer.

The setup we have used is as this:

New user here so easy does it. Now reverse it for me. What comes to mind if my SME lan workstations need to access a remote desktop at a remote location so they can access a server based database? This database is behind a Cisco pix 515e on Windows 2003r2 software setup as domain controller.
Anything required from me on the lan workstation side using SME?
I know on the remote location I will have to configure that desktop for RDP, allow the pix to pass and possibly lock up this pc in the server room. Yes there will be slow access times but it's that or purchase a 900.00 thin client setup from database company. Am I thinking right or am I in left field again?
