Prak355: I recently spent 5 hours with Microsoft on this same issue. We tried everything, including the Winsock rolling back Hotfixes, etc. My clients could VPN into other servers setup the same way, no problem. The problem was limited only to this one particular server W2k and WinXP SP1...

The errors listed might indicate a conflict with the NIC. Check to see if there are any interupt conflicts with the NIC.

Knight: I assume that Client for Microsoft networks is installed on your clients. This error is consistent with that missing. Is your DNS authorized?

I suggset that you get another hub. Just a standard hub. Plug all your machines into it. Connect one cable from the new hub to the linksys router that goes out to the Internet. Disable DHCP on the router. Assign your IPs to each PC. 192.168.1.101, 192.168.1.102, etc. The Gateway will be...

eruss: I have seen this happen and the key feature was that the client had to reboot before reconnect was possible. This meant it was a licensing issue. Make sure you have enough licenses allocated on the server for the number of users. Increase as necessary.

Knight: Make sure the DNS setting on the clients is the server address and not the ISP DNS. Then setup a forwarder in DNS on the server with the ISP DNS address. In DNS highlight the server, go the action menu /properties/forwarder tab and put in ISP DNS. If forwarder option is dimmed -...

This is addressed in SP3 for Windows 2000

I'm not that clear on what you are asking, but if you are using the defaults on the linksys: the router address is 192.169.1.1 - so set the gateway on your PCs to that address. Set the DNS on the PCs to the Server address - 192.169.1.110. Setup a forwarder in DNS on the server to the DNS of...

Gentlemen: I have linked two Win2K PDCs together in order to share an accounting package utilizing the Pervasive 2000 database engine. I have mapped drives to each server. The drive mapping on the clients of the one PDC connected to the PDC running the application disconnects after a short...

LDaveM: This depends on how many licenses are setup in Licensing. You have to setup the number of users (clients). If the number of users exceeds the number set in licensing, you may begin to see some users disconnected from mapped drives, new logons typically bump others - requiring a...

Lengoo: Don't know why you would be missing that dll. You might pick it up at this link. The funny characters - I would check my security, see if you have been hacked. http://dll.yaroslavl.ru/

AGA: When you start your machine and logon to the office network you use a certain username and password, right? i.e. username: aga password: ******. Setup a user with that username and password on your home network. when you tunnel into the home network, use that username and password, not...

Make sure you are sharing resources on the home server. Make your username and password on you home server the same as the username and password that you are using on the work network.

Thanks B and V! You're right about the Multihomed setup. Thanks, I'll give the RRAS a try.

Thanks brontosaurus! The DNS settings for both NICS are the ISP DNS. Both Servers are sharing a T1 connection. The server with the 2 NICs - one is connected to its internal, local network switch, the other to the switch of the other network. Each of the network switches are tied into a third...
