VPN passthrough watchguard X edge x55e to SBS 2003

Asked by Skinner44 in SBS Small Business Server, Virtual Private Networking (VPN), Watchguard Firewall

Tags: Watchguard, X edge, X55e-W

I am currently running Microsoft Small Business Server 2003 R2 connected to a Watchguard X Edge X55e-W.

I am trying to establish a VPN to the SBS server so that employees can access the network from their lap tops when they leave the office.

The Server Computer has two network cards.  One card connects to the X edge and the other connects to the route that connects all  the office computers.  I set PPTP incoming and outgoing to allow on the X edge.  I set up the Remote access on SBS, However I am unsure what I should use for the server name.  SBS help says to use you public IP address, is that the external IP address of the X edge?

I would appreciate it if someone could give me some help on the best way to set this VPN?  When I try and connect from the laptop I get an error saying it can't find the network.
