Hi, I have setup two VPN servers in my work environment. The two servers sit behind a hardware firewall and both machines are mapped to external IPs via NetScreen 25. Each machine has two NICs and they both have Windows 2000 Server installed (with all Microsoft's latest patches applied). Internet Authentication Service is installed and both machines belongs to a domain controller which provide authentication services for these VPN servers. Since both machines have identical setup (except IP), I will give you config of VPN Server1: Two NICs:(with bogus IPs) NIC#1Public: 192.168.1.90 mapped to 202.15.15.90 SubNet MasK 255.255.255.0 Default Gtw 192.168.1.1 Preferred DNS 192.168.1.80 NIC#2Private: 192.168.1.92 SubNet MasK 255.255.255.0 Default Gtw(blank-per MS manual i found on the Internet) Preferred DNS 192.168.1.80 Users are prompted for password and authenticated with no problem but only stay connected for about 10 to 15 minutes then gets dropped eventhough they can reconnect with no problem. This problem persist for every user trying to VPN in. Can someone tell me if my configuration is correct? What can I do to rectify this? Any help on this would be much appreciated.
