VPN no problem LAN but Problem WAN
----------
I had a connection from my xp workstation VPNing into my Server 2003 however they are on the same LAN. I did this for testing. I am now outside that LAN and cannot connect into the server on a XP workstation with a VPN connection I created. I know that I did not change any settings on either LAN in the routers; they both show that the VPN protocols are enabled by default. (Linksys routers). I did not enable or disable any ports. I cannot even ping the LAN IP address in question. This seems to be a problem from the router? I am running Comcast on the network with the server and verizon on the other LAN. I have gone and bridged the modem and installed a Linksys router allready. I am just wondering why I could do things on my LAN like SSH into this workstation outside the LAN or FTP or SFTP. I cannot do any of this from the verizon LAN (the LAN without the server) I am running the server as a DHCP, DNS, Active Directory server. I have tried to ping the LAN IP address with no luck. Where do I begin? I also know that I do not have a IPsec certificate should I install one or do I need one for a VPN connection to work outside the LAN?
