Routing and Remote Access VPN

I have setup routing and remote access in Windows 2003 Server to be a VPN server. I also configured my ISA Server to allow VPN access. I successfully connect to the VPN server from the internet. I go and check, and I get an internal IP address for that network so I am guessing my DHCP relay client is working for the VPN Server.

I connect but cannot access anything on the internal network.

I get an IP address of

IP: 10.0.2.177
S Mask: 255.255.255.255
Def Gateway: 10.0.2.177

I see right there that my subnet mask is a broadcast. That is not the correct subnet mask so I guess something is wrong, but cannot find any info on how to fix the problem. I'd like to be able for users to connect to the server, and have access to their home folders, and maybe have a script load when they connect mapping network drives.

 
I couldnt find anyway for the VPN server to issue anything but a broadcast subnet. I ended up DHCP relaying to my dhcp server instead.
 
A subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 is normal. I use an ISA 2004 VPN also.

Remember that you should let ISA 2004 configure your VPN. ISA will then configure RRAS to what it needs. Do everything from inside ISA.

I'll give that a shot.
 
Working excellent now. I can connect to servers via UNC paths, and etc. Is there a way to launch scripts VIA VPN options?? I have batch files that load for every user when they log in to my domain at work that connects to shares.

If the VPN client PCs are members of the Domain, you can use the Sysvol domain login scripts to map drives, etc. Be sure to turn OFF the "Block IP Fragments" option in ISA, or the login scripts may not work properly.

During the logon process they log on as domain members but their PC's at home will not be joined in to the domain. Would they still work even though the PC's themselve are not joined in the domain.
