Can't ping new RAS server

[lanej]

Hi ... I just setup a new server (2003 standard) and made it a RAS
server. I still have another machine online that is handling the RAS
duties until I get the new one up. My problem is that I can't ping the
new machine's public address. I can ping the current RAS server
regardless of what public IP I give it (I have a pool of 50+) so I know
it isn't a firewall problem. I can connect to the new RAS within the
network so I know that it is working; however, it won't let folks
outside the network connect. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jay

assuming you have a firewall, have you forwarded the ports to the server?
