Can I give myself points? &nbsp;I resolved this problem by using a vb script to set the dns server ip addresses on my network adapter to my LAN servers and then connected the VPN. &nbsp;Once connected with the dns server addresses hard coded to the lan adapter (both wireless and wired), the CRM client opened up without errors. &nbsp;After disconnecting the vpn, another script is run to set the dns back to auto detect. &nbsp;The web client connects without using the ip address and without having to reauthenticate too.

I am using Microsoft CRM Version 3 client integration to Microsoft Outlook (office 2003). &nbsp;Outlook runs just fine through our Symantec Enterprise VPN Client version 8 but the CRM server cannot be contacted. &nbsp;I've spent several hours on the phone with Symantec support and they are still working on it. &nbsp;Is anyone connecting to the CRM server through Outlook over any vpn? &nbsp;If so, which and how did you get it to work? &nbsp;We can connect to the web CRM client but even that is not as clean as should be. &nbsp;Users have to put in the IP address and then authenticate over vpn which they do not have to do when connecting locally. &nbsp;

Can MS CRM integration to Microsoft Outlook be run over a VPN?
