Have been trying (in vane) for the last couple weeks to configure
VNC to work as a VPN to my internal LAN.
My LAN is behind an Instant Internet 400 box (NAT device).
I can vnc all over INSIDE the LAN, but am unable to access the LAN
devices from outside the II-box because of the NAT mappings.
I have users on all sorts of OS (Win95/98/2k/ME, Linux-RH/Mdk/SuSE) and
accessing
the net through all sorts of methods (ISDN, Dialup 56k, DSL, Cable etc...)
Primarily the users need to access their own onsite workstations (which in
turn
would access the servers).
I need to implement a solution ASAP, as one of my users is about to
head out on maternity leave and needs remote access now.
I am also researching VPN hardware solutions from WatchGuard and Cisco,
but they are pretty spendy.
Anyone ever made this configuration work? And if so, how?
