 VPN Setup 2003 Server
I have one domain server. I tried to set up the RAS VPN service as outlined in Microsoft's Knowledge base. How ever if I get the vpn to work then no one on the internal network can access the internet. I understand they use the same services. Is there a way to configure the RAS for VPN and allow local network users access to the Internet?

Answer Wiki:
not a lot of information here. If this is the only server you have, does it also provide dns? dhcp? gateway/firewall? I would check the IP pool RAS is taking, also routes, proxy assignment. In a single server, all your network services need to work together, and sometimes services step on each others toes ********************* Is this an external VPN that's connecting to the same external IP address that everyone is using to NAT on to the internet? My knowledge is a little shaky on this, so I'm willing to be proved wrong, but I imagine that causing an issue... Yes this is a single server invironment that does DNS, DHCP I have a Lynksys Gateway Router that does DHCP replay pointed to the DHCP server. I have tried the lynksys vpn client... it links in but you still cannot access files or computers. I spoke with linksys and they are aware of the issue and reported several of thier routers have the same issue and they do not know why. They are investigating. So I need to move ahead and try to get the RAS working so that my local users can access internet and still allow VPN connections using Windows native VPN software.
