Server 2003 Wan Links
Hi Experts,
I have two windows 2003 domains in separate sites. I want to connect the sites over a public ADSL wan link. Each site has a PIX as it's internet gateway. Can I do this using VPN? Could someone point me in the right direction. How do I link two private subnets across a public carrier - this is where I am stuck?

Hi Chaps,
I haven't tried this yet but I've been reading up on VPN. I have one further question - on one site the PIX is behind a NAT router. Will this cause problems? If I forward all VPN traffic from the router to the PIX will this break the VPN tunnel so to speak?

No, if you forward the correct ports then it shouldn't be a problem. Some routers do include a vpn passthrough function which works in a similar way.

I'll try the link and see how I get on. I'm comfortable with PIX console - just new to VPNs.
Back later.
