accessing data base from remote computer

we have sql 2005 standard edition. i was trying ( unsuccessfully ) to configure RAS on server 2003 to allow the server to authentificate vpn requests. i don't know how but the next day people started complaining about their mapped network drives being disconnected, and now no one can connect to the database via the network, eventhough they still have access to the server, and the network drives were remapped.

Any errors or information in event log for such behaviour?

I believe this is more based on Windows side question than to SQL Server related.

|||actually now that you mention it, there is a message that keeps showing up since about the time i started playing around with RAS. it is from NfsSvr. it says mapping information could not be obtained from user mapping. another attempt will be made in 30 minutes. this message first appeared about noon on fri. however we started having trouble late thur. the message repeats itself every 30 minutes.

access denied using a trusted connection over a VPN

Hi - when i try to run a .NET app over my VPN using ADO.NET, a trusted conne
ction with SQL in mixed mode, i get 'access denied'. when i run the same app
from my local network thru the VPN, no problem..i'm using the same login an
d password for all computer
s(SQL Server is on another computer in the VPN network, which works fine w/t
rusted connection from the VPN server) How can i get access thru my VPN? Tha
nksAfter you have VPN'd in to your network. Test the following commands:
net use \\ServerName\IPC$
ISQL -Stcp:ServerName -E
Thanks,

network.
When I'm at home using my vpn-client i'm not able to use trusted
connection.
I'm able to use net use \\myserver\ipc$ without any problems.
I have about 50 clients running Windows 2000 Pro SP4 and about 10 of
them are using VPN and 3 of them have the same problem as I.
I think that these errors started to occur sometime in july.
Might this be some Windowsupdate question..?
I use automatic download and install.
Thanks in advance.
