Question : Cannot see SBS server shares through VPN tunnel - different subnets
|
|
Hi. I've searched EE for this one and there are some similar ones but can't find step-by-steps to get this working. Situation is this:
SBS03 on 192.168.116.x - all working sweetly. IPSEC VPN tunnel through 2 x Netgear DG834G v4 - tunnel up fine, second subnet on 192.168.117.x.
I can ping server from second location- even server name resolves to correct IP though tunnel, so all is nice there.
The problem is that I cannot see shares on SBS03 server. No authentication even comes up. I can RDP through it without an issue, but I'm pretty sure RRAS just needs to be configured to allow 192.168.117.x requests to be accepted, as it's configured for 192.168.116.x connections.
Can anyone give me step-by-step instructions on how to configure this so i don't kill the routing on my nice fresh SBS?
Thanks heaps. Nathan.

Ladies and Gents - the answer: faulty Netgear software.
Surprisingly Netgear emailed me back only 6hrs later with a firmware upgrade. A known issue, would you believe it? Nice of them to put it on their site. For those wanting it - they said they'd post it soon. Can i post it here? Not sure if i'm allowed.
Firmware upgrade on both ends, and all is well. My IPSEC tunnel between my servers is sweet! In Netgear's defense, even though i hate them right now, this was the easist tunnel i've ever done, and it's so quick to join and rejoin.
Thanks for the inputs. Can we take points off Netgear?
