changing IP range
I need to change the IP range of my local lan. The reason being my remote VPN users tend to have the same IP range as our corporate network. This tends to cause problems with network printers... So... I need the ability to add IP addresses to my servers. And then I plan to change my DHCP range to accommodate this new range. So, I'll end up with my domain controllers, email, and file/print servers having IP addresses both two different ranges. I plan to work with Cisco in regards to my network appliances seeing this new range, however, what precautions or issues should I be prepared for in regards to adding IP addresses to my servers?

Both comments stand true in most scenarios, however, I went a different direction due to me being lucky enough to have a Cisco ASA 5510 that support SSL VPN clientless smart tunneling.

Also,
I ended up utilizing Cisco's Smart tunneling clientless VPN option... This allows my to tunnel specified applications but at the same time the remote user never gets an IP address from my VPN config.. So... The whole IP range issue is voided. I tested and it works fine. Now my remote users can print to their WiFi based printers even if their local range matches my corporates local IP range...
Both of your comments make sense and do help though.. It seems that simply creating a clientless SSL VPN profile utilizing smart tunneling fixed my issue.
Thanks!
