First of all I would like to apologize for my ignorance to the group, I am
just learning this stuff!

I would appreciate feedback and coaching on this!

I am trying to install a VPN internet connection from one site to another
through DSL and a small routers at each end!

I have and internal network of 192.168.0.1-254 set up on the small router
where the server is located!

I have installed two network cards on the Server, both are plugged into the
same hub on the network....

1- has the address of 192.168.0.20 , the other I have assigned to the
external address to be seen on the VPN internet connection which is a static
IP assigned by qwest

I set up the VPN and remote access in the server, as soon I start the remote
access server I lose connectivity to the internal network and the internet

I reviewed the interfaces and static routes and it looks like the VPN
interface had routes and is marked active/readable, although the internal
network card is showing not active and is not responding and showing
unreadable as an interface......

I know I have missed something not sure what!
I am thinking I need to add a route but not sure how and if this is correct!

I look forward to your comments and appreciate your help!

Jim

In the advanced tcp/ip properties of the VPN connection
make sure you take the check mark out of "use default
gateway on remote network".

To connect two sites you really should set up a router to router (also
called LAN to LAN) VPN connection. A normal "dialup" type connection is
really only suitable for a single client to connect to a server.

I would do it in steps. First enable the server at the "home" site for
remote access. Check that you can connect to it locally (ie from a local LAN
client), then check that you can connect to it from a remote client through
the Internet. This may involve using port forwarding if your server is
behind a router.

When you can connect to the "home" office server this way, look at
setting up a routed connection from the "branch" office. Start with the info
in Windows server help. Heaps more info available at Microsoft's web site.

hello Gang and thanks for the input! I have got both of the networks cards
talking now and when I try and vpn in I get a message that I am not
successful because of the firewall/router or login and password is not
accepted?

So we are making progress

Bill I did enable the server now and followed the instructions form MS for
PTP and still no go!

Ideas?

Part of the problem is:

"I have installed two network cards on the Server, both are plugged into the
same hub on the network...."

You have 2 mutually exclusive choices:

1. Assign the public IP to the router: Use one network card on the server
and use your DSL router to map port 1723 and GRE 47 to the server's
192.168.0.x address - assuming the 'router' has this capability; or

2. Assign the public IP to the server and make the server be the router:
Use 2 network cards in the server - connect the DSL cable directly to one of
them and connect the other to the hub to which all other computers are
connected.

Good point, Doug. I missed the two NICs plugged into the same hub.

Because of the router, your server is not connected directly to the
Internet, but has a private address. The VPN connection has to be made
initially to a public IP, so you must connect to the router and forward the
PPTP traffic to the server. And as Doug pointed out, it will fail if the
router blocks GRE. (GRE is IP protocol 47).

The simplest solution is to run the server with one NIC and forward PPTP
to the server's 192.168.0 IP. If you use two NICs, they must be in
different IP subnets, with one connected to the hub and the other to the
router. As Doug said, you can use either method, but you can't mix them.

Using the two NIC method works, but complicates the routing. The
"public" NIC of the server is in the same subnet as the router. The
"private" NIC is in the same subnet as the LAN clients (all plugged into the
hub), and the server becomes the default route of the LAN machines. This
looks like the normal two NIC setup, but you have the extra "link" subnet
between the server and the router to cope with.

Again thanks to the group!

Can we run VPN through the internet without 2 network cards?

The short answer is yes. The long answer goes like this.

If your server is directly connected to the Internet with a public IP,
you use two NICs in your VPN server. One is connected to the Internet and
the other to your LAN. You connect through the Internet to your public
interface and establish a VPN connection so that remote users can access
your private LAN.

If your server is instead on a private LAN and connected to the Internet
by a router, you do not need a public interface on the server. The router
will act as your public interface. The clients will connect initially to
this public interface on the router. The VPN traffic will be forwarded
through the LAN from the router to the server by port forwarding. All this
means is that when the router receives a PPTP packet it will not process it,
but forward it to the VPN server for processing.

Apart from the packet forwarding, everything remains the same. The
server receives the packet, strips the extra headers and decrypts the
payload to retrieve the original (privately addressed) frame, just as it
does in the directly connected case. For traffic in the other direction, the
server receives the frame from the LAN interface, encrypts it and encloses
it in the PPTP header with the clients public IP on the outside. This packet
is sent to the router which sends it off through the Internet, just like any
other packet.
