I am very new to the whole VPN thing but I would like to learn how to
set up a Windows 2003 Server as a VPN server?

I tried to use a netgear VPN\Router and was told by netgear that they
didn't know why it wasn't working. Go Netgear Support!

Anyway Here is a little Diagram showing how my network is configured
now.


Home User--->DSL\Cable Modem--->Internet--->MyOffice(T1 Line) --->
Netopia PN660-T1(Router) ---> SymantecSecurity Router( No DHCP)
--->Multi Port Switch
--->Server 2003 (DNS, AD & DHCP) 192.168.0.251
--->Server 2003 (DNS, AD ) 192.168.0.252
--->Server 2003 (RRAS\VPN) 192.168.0.250 also Extra NIC
(I think this is needed for VPN but how to configure???)
--->Windows XP Clients IP's Assigned By DHCP
'
'
'
--->Windows XP Clients

I have a range of Static IP's that I can use for whatever I want, I
have 2 WAN ports on my Netopia Router and would just like to have a VPN
so my home users can work from Home.

What I am not sure about is things like what IP's to give to the RRA
Server, When I try to configure I get warnings about not having the
same default gateway, and something about a DHCP relay agent.

I have found a few guides on setting up the RRAS but I am not really
sure about my network configuration, can someone please shed some light
for me?

Thanks in Advance

Are you using two NICs or one? You can setup VPN using just one NIC.
