Hi everyone, I want to setup a VPN to my home network. I have been reading the techrepublic article "Step by step: Configure a Windows Server 2003 VPN—Server side." If I understand the article correctly it's not possible to setup a VPN in this way if your server doesn't have two NIC's. "With the selection of the Internet-connected NIC out of the way, you need to tell the RRAS wizard which network external clients should connect to in order to access resources. Notice that the adapter selected for Internet access is not an option here." Can someone please confirm that this is the case? Thanks for your help.

Kind of a trick question. If you want it to be secure as designed you have to use two nics. You could in fact break it to allow the use of one nic. A cheap nic, usb or pci can't cost too much. "Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10

Not true and you can set it up behind a router, but your router has to be capable of passing through Protocol 47 (GRE). Though you may have to install a Microsoft loopback adapter if it complains about too NICs. I set this up before with SBS, and recently had some issues I worked through with 2003 Standard. Here's my posting where I worked through it, hope it helps. http://www.computing.net/answers/wi... Assume that I already did an Internet search.
