Lost internet connection for workstations and server

Was doing my final preparations for deploying a 2003 server and was running
the SCW and a few other things when I noticed after a while that all my
workstations and server cannot to the internet.. Incoming connections for
VPN and PcAnywhere still work.. (all was working fine till I got carried
away)

Can someone point me in a direction to see what setting I may have set
wrong..

Tried the roll back in the SCW - but think I am too late for that.. I tried
too many other changes there..

So, I am not sure where the problem might be.. Server running 2 NIC's
w/Routing, file server, App server, VPN server, DNS and DHCP..

Any help appreciated... (this was a used system donated to my church, so I
have limited experience with 2003 server)

TIA

Jim

There are many possibilities.

1. Since you have tow NICs, I would check the TCP/IP settings first and make sure only one NIC has default gateway.
2. I would check VPN outbound filter.
3. Finally, it could be DNS issue too.
posting the result of ipconfig /all may help.

Checked the VPN - they are set correctly (inbound only)

Hey - I just remembered - I replaced one of the NIC's (the one used for
Private LAN) it was only 10MB so I replaced it with the SMC Pro100.. So I
think that is where the problem is.. the settings on that interface..

I guess I didn't set that up right...

I am getting a message that address 192.168.0.1 is assinged to a another
adapter that is hidden from from the network connection folder (probably
because it has been removed by me).. I selected NO to the "Do you want to
enter a different ip address" question..

What can I check next?..

As mentioned, that problem is you have two default gateway this search result may help,
Routing Don't add default gateway across disjoint networks Is it possible both sites of the VPN using the same IP range Metric is the same for both the remote ...

Well - I got it working... deleted the setups for routing , dns and dhcp and set a new IP range for the private lan..(something I wanted to do anyway, didn't want to use the same range that is used by most home routers) .. the website help pages helped alot.. thanks..
