Hallo allemaal,
A few days ago we moved our SBS 2003 server to another location This server is AD, DHCP, Exhange, OWA and OMA serevr. Before this server was in our home network, but now moved to my son's ouse.
Network un my son's house:
ADSL 2+ Modem WatchGuard FireBox X20E Client Vista Ultimate Client XP Pro
In my place:
ADSL 2+ Modem Linksys DSL VPN Router, DHCP and Gateway for my home network. Client Vista Business Client XP Pro verse installatie
Between my son's place and my home we have a VPN-tunnel.
My son's place: SBS 2003 Server: IP 192.168.0.4
My place: Linsys Router: IP 192.168.1.1
Client Vista Business: IP 192.168.1.100 via DHCP DNS server 192.168.0.4 Gateway 192.168.1.1
The XP client cannot connect to the AD. It can connect however with dial-in connection. The Vista client log in is within a few seconds.
The XP client takes over 30 minutes to log in and than has no profile. IP via DHCP and DNS server are allright according ipconfig /all
I don't have a clue what is going wrong here. User and machine are both visible in AD.
Why can't the XP client connect to the domain.

Assuming the VPN tunnel is in place, and the routes and trusted networks are setup correctly in the VPN properties on both sides, as well as that all ports are allowed free access (no restrictions, it should work. What maybe the issue is the ADSL. Since it is a slow link, it will fall under the default AD threshold of 500Kb, which cause certain things portions of a GPOs to not function. Also with an ADSL line, it uses PPPOE, which is known to cause problems due to the lower MTU (1492 instead of 1500), which thwarts domain communication.
My suggestion is check the firewall settings. Test to see if you can ping the server from your place to your son's SBS. If that works, determine what the MTU is by following this website's suggestions: http://wansend.wordpress.com/2007/05/17/using-ping-to-find-largest-mtu-along-a-vpn-route/
If it is lower than 1492, there will be a problem, because Ldap has problems under 1500.
ALso, if you get that working, and if you want to browse by network neighborhood, you will also need WINS on the SBS and configure your clients to use it.
