Set up VPN in W2K Pro

[Eric Nelson]

I'd like to set up a VPN between two work locations, with
Win2K Pro on both ends. Q308208 (How to set up VPN in
W2K) gives the impression this can be done, but I can't
find RRAS for Win2K Pro.

Does the server end need to be a Server OS or can I get
RRAS for W2KPro, or WXP Pro? Thanks.

sorry I was not clear enough

if you want to set up a VPN connection between only 2 machines you can run
only windows 2000 PRO on both on the machine you are calling you need to
create a new network connection and enable " accept incoming connection"
option in the wizard

but if you want multiple connection to the same server at the same time, (
you need in this case an OS that manages the connection) so the called
machine needs to be running windows 2000 server or windows 2003 server and
install RRAS)
