This is somewhat of an urgent question as i have a guy flying to europe right now and he should arrive there in about 12 hours, and i need to get him to be able to access the server on my network atleast, and throught that the software i belive lets him access any client computers if he needs to also.
i didn't have time to check if this was a question that was already answerd or not but either way, the answer/s that get it to work will recieve the points
what i need is to be able to connect to the server from outside my network and access the files,
my network is like this, we have a t1 line with routher from eschelon, it is connected to a switch, all the client computers are also connected to this switch, the printserver is connected to this switch, the wireless access point is connect aswell and most importlantly the server is connected all to this one switch.
the server is runing Windows Small Buisness Server 2003,
i am not trained or knowledged in setting up networks to a buisness level, i am simply the most computer savy in my company (small company so we decided to do it ourselves cause up intill now it was just setting up as a domain, file sharing and email through exchange)....
i am able to connect to the server from a client computer by typing in the static ip i gave the server, and it brings me to the welcome screen of SBS 2003 from where i go and connect remotely, but when i type that address in at home, it does find the server, and thats understandable because i belive this is just an internal ip addres, i asked one guy and he said something about setting up a VPN but i don't know if i have one set up or not yet, i don't know even what it is
i can give any other details that are needed just ask, i'll check back often, i would really appreciate a answer that in somewhat simple terms can walk me through the proccess of setting it up and getting to work, thank you for all who respond.
