Hello,
I configured Routing and Remote Access on my server with Windows Server
2003, it works great, I can dial in etc, but I want to be able to access
internet from within the server to download updates etc.....

After I configured RRA for VPN I'm no longer able to access internet from
within the server.....

Can anyone help me?

thanks!

Enabling remote access should not disable Internet access from the server.
Is the server running as a DC and/or DNS server?

hi,
no, it's not a DC or DNS, I only configured it as a VPN server..... I
enabled the option to secure the connection dropping any package other than
VPN ones, then I added a rule in inbound and outbound filters to allow
packages for port 80 and 443, so I can the server can work as a web server.

thanks

If you have set the filters to block all traffic except VPN, what you are
seeing is what should happen. Getting the inbound and outbound filters set
up correctly can be tedious and tricky. Is this server directly connected to
the Internet?
