Solve : REMOTE ADMIN OF SERVER 2003 VIA VPN?

1.	Solve : REMOTE ADMIN OF SERVER 2003 VIA VPN?
Answer» How would I set a VPN service so I can do remote administration on my Server 2003 machines from my xp pro machine ?If the machines are on the same physical network, a VPN connection is not necessary. You can just use RDP. Please PROVIDE a little more information about how these computers are connected?I have to agree with Rob ... I would user RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) if it is on the same network. If it is not there are a NUMBER of options. You can use something like RealVNC. However i find the best method for my setup is using a FREE VPN client called LogMeIn Hamachi. It can be FOUND here -->https://secure.logmein.com/products/hamachi/vpn.asp It is very easy to setup and you can add all the servers you need to maintain for free. (There may be a cap, but i haven't hit it.) Also once you set it up, you can control all the computers/servers using RDP. I hope this helps. HoFL
