The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

RRAS VPN - user can only see VPN serving machine after connecting?

Asked by rberman in Windows Networking, Windows 2000 Server, Virtual Private Networking (VPN)

Tags: routing vpn lan network security

I have a Routing & Remote Access VPN on a W2K server that's been up and fine for years. Generally, I VPN in from various places using the standard Windows client on XP or Vista, and usually then remote-desktop into various systems on that remote LAN.

I have another user I'd like to have access in the same way, but she can only see and access the Win2K serer after connecting through the VPN - no other system on the LAN even responds to ping for her.

I seem to recall a few years ago I had a contractor who I gave exactly that kind of access to - to see the server only, but I don't recall how I did that. But in any case, now I want this user to have the same access that I do, but under her own login credentials of course.

I have a single remote access policy - membership in a group - and she is a member of that group. I have tried giving her administrators group as well (since I have that) but that changed nothing for her LAN access.

I've checked input/output filtering, and there's nothing there about per-user or per-group access (it is just IP, port and protocols filtering anyway).

She is using Vista32 on a laptop - same as I am. She connects and authenticates without a problem. There is no external routing firewall between this server and the LAN. There is no filtering on the LAN interface on the W2K server. She authenticates and is given an IP in the LAN address range (I've checked by looking at the Remote Access Clients in RRAS manager). Note that this is not an AD setup, just a basic MS LAN with a couple of servers and about 6 workstations.

So the question could be asked: If you wanted to give a user VPN access through RRAS and wanted to limit them to just the RRAS server itself for LAN visibility, how would you do it? Or how might I UNDO it?
