LINK 2 SBS2003 SERVERS BY VPN

[jez21]

Hope someone can help with this one

I want to link 2 Small business 2003 servers by vpn, I have created a demand dial vpn interface on each server. However only one connection will work at one time. So if server A connects to server B then server B can not connect to server A. as soon as server A drops its connection then server B can connect but server A can no longer connect

assuming you setup a site to site vpn, have you create two windows servers for the Answering and Calling Routers? quoted from

How to Setup A Site-to-Site VPN Connection

To setup a Site-to-Site VPN Connection , you may need to configure two windows servers for the Answering and Calling Routers. Here are the steps:

1. Run RRAS, on Configuration page, select LAN routing.
2. Configure VPN on the Answering Router.
3. Configure the Demand-dial Interface on the Answering Router.
4. Configure VPN on the Calling Router.
5. Configure the Demand-dial Interface on the Calling Router.
6. Confirm the Remote Access Policy Configuration on the Answering and Calling Routers.

I dont think that on the SBS you can setup any trusts between two of them. I am pretty sure you can only have one server at each location with their own domain. Not tied together for replication or any of that stuff. Let me know if I am wrong.
