VPN / Radius / Windows 2003

[JD]

Could not find a plain VPN NG thus I post here as closest - thx

I have two servers that are connected to Internet...

(1) - AD/Exchange 2003 (native both)
(2) - File Server

I want to make (2) also VPN server for our internal AD Domain.

* Do I need to have RADIUS installed - if so, which machines do I need it
on?

* What components do I need exactly on each servers?

Thank you all!

You need not have RADIUS installed if you have VPN Server (1) and set the
authentication to Windows Auth.
Else, if you have RRAS on a separate machine other than (1) then you need
to have RADIUS server.
You can install RADIUS on the AD or on a differnet machine and join it to a
domain you wanted to authenticate against.
