My job had a SBS 2003, and I am trying to connect from home. What else do I need to do besides enabling remote access on the server, and setting up a network connection from home. The reason why I am asking is because I did both, and I wasnt able to connect. When I click on diagnose, it explained that port 1723 may need to be opened. If this is the case, how do I do that. Our ISP is XO Commnications which is webbased.<br />

Thanks,

The Microsoft Server topic includes all of the legacy versions of the operating system, including the Windows NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows Home Server versions.

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
