I have just set up a VPN tunnel between two Cisco routers. How can I get the remote site to access our home site server? Is there something to configure on the SDM to allow access to the server or do I have to use a third party software like Symantec PCAnywhere or Cisco VPN client to access the server?

HELP..Anyone?

Thanks in advanace.
 
Can users at the remote site ping the server? If the VPN is working, they should have full layer-3 access to it. If they don't, then the VPN isn't working right (or at least as you'd like it).

The VPN client doesn't connect to servers, it's used for a client-site VPN to connect to a VPN endpoint. Not needed in a site-site situation.
 
No I cannot ping the server. I know it has something to do with it being an ISA server. Anyone know what I must configure to allow access to the server?
 
Whats being blocked by the ISA server? What is it you want to be able to access across the VPN? ISA servers on the internet mostly are set up not to respond to ICMP or telnet, so pinging it might not work depends on your setup. Just make sure your isa server isnt blocking the traffic you are trying to send from the VPN.
