Whoa... OK...
I have a small windows (and one mac) network set up at my office. Built it up and it was a piece of cake actually. Windows functions alright with a LAN. Anyway I have our database of pictures, files, documents and what not on a central server running win2000 server edition. The server delegates all of our accounts that each person uses to log into the network and works as a DHCP as well.
Anyway...
We recently got a second location and I just set a computer up (where I'm typing from right now). I want it to be able to connect to the server at our main location, over the internet, to pull files off of it (using VPN or whatever
). So... At the main location, which I will call SERVER1, I have configured the server as a DMZ and have set up Remote Access across the internet (VPN I think) so that I can connect to it using the Public IP address on the WAN side of the router I have there.
So here I am at our second location trying to connect to SERVER1 with the "Add Network Place Wizard" and im getting nothing [perhaps I'm using the wrong syntax... but i dont think so. I've tried everything along the lines of http(and ftp)://(Server1's IP Addy)/Server1].
I can, however, connect with my IBOOK and it lets me connect using any of the accounts I have set up on SERVER1 (wont let me connect with random stuff I pull out of my a$$, fortunately), but I can only gain access to the little MS UAM volume- which I have installed and does me no good
ANY suggestions would be super-appreciated.
Thanks in advance everyone.
