Why do you need both on the same subnet ?<br />
<br />
Are you using RDP ?<br />
<br />
Use the newest 6.1 client.<br />
<br />
If you need to transfer files, use the local RDP resources for Local drives.<br />
<br />
<br />
I hope this helps !<br />

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.
