Hello all. I have read hundreds of threads regarding VPN setup. I
have read technet and MSDN pages until I am dizzy. I need help getting
this to work... I am missing something and unable to figure out what.

Here is a summary of my setup and problems. The "setup" is at the end
of this post to make reading easier.

Symptoms and summary of problem:

THe VPN cvonnection on the client is setup to log onto the domain
and the domian users account is set to accept VPN connections

I can log into the network via the VPN
I can ping any IP on the remote network -and- internet
I can ping servername.domain.local from the client
I can NET USE \\server.domain.local
I can \\ClientHostName from the VPN server
I can browse web pages through the VPN server (trcert shows that the
route does indeed go through the VPN server and the DLINK router, then
off to the remote ISPS getaway)

I CAN NOT ping the clients IP address from the VPN server or remote lan

I CAN NOT browse to any of the remote computers over the VPN
I CAN NOT ping any of the remote computers by host name alone, I have
to use the FQDN
I CAN NOT <NET USE //HOST> I have to enter the FQDN instead

I also get ann event viewer error message:
EventID: 30022
Source: IPBOOTP
Description: IPBOOTP was unable to receive an incoming message on the
local interface with IP address 192.168.1.75. The data is the error
code.

This happens when a client logs into the VPN.


I guess this is a DNS problem of some sort or another. Likey something
simple? What gets me is that I can ping host.mydomain.local from the
vpn client... but vant ping just the host without providing the FQDN..
so DNS is kinda working.

Can any of you plese help me? It seems as if I am 90% there.. but just
can't get the rest of the way. I would like to be able to browse the
remote LAN from the client machine that is connected to the VPN.
Otherwise it is kind of pointless! Shouldnt I be able to open "entire
network" and broswse to the computers on the remote LAN? Shouldnt I be
able to <PING hostname> instead of having to <ping
hostname.mydomain.local>

Please help me understand what I am doing wrong. ALso, a dual nic
configuration is not possible. THis is a learning exercise so that I
can support a few of my clients with similar setups.

I proceeded to setup the RRAS server as follows:

SINGLE NIC
CUSTOM CONFIGURATION (from wizard)

GENARAL RRAS SEVER SETTINGS:
Router and Remote access enbalbed
(land and demand dial selected)

RRAS IP SETTINGS:
enable IP ROUTING
Allow Ip Based remote acces
STATIC POOL 192.168.1.75 - 192.168.1.79
ENABLE broadcast name resolution

NETWORK INTERFACES:
Loopback-Loopback-Enabled-Connected
Local Area Connection-Dedicated-Enabled-Connected-
Internal-Internal-Enabled-Connected

PORTS:
5 PPTP ports

DHCP RELAY AGENT:
Set to "relay DHCP packets"
Interface-INTERNAL
Sends messages to 192.168.1.1 (routers DHCP??? Source of IPBOOTP
error?)

IGMP:
Interface: Local Area Connection
setting: IGMP proxy
Status: Enabled
Interface: Internal
setting: IGMP router
Status: Enabled

Static Routes:
NONE

Routing Table:
Destination Network mask Gateway Interface

0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 Local Area Connection
127.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 127.0.0.1 Loopback
127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255, 27.0.0.1 Loopback
192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.5 Local Area
192.168.1.5 255.255.255.255,127.0.0.1,Loopback
192.168.1.255 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.5 Local Area
224.0.0.0 240.0.0.0 192.168.1.5 Local Area Connection
255.255.255.255 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.5 Local Area

That is the basic setup of my lan and the RRAS VPN SETTINGS.


If there is any other information I can provide please let me know!!
Thanks in advance,
William Burnett
