trying to find HOW TO configure external XP pro client to use VPN and access
the internet

we have the VPN working and he can connect to SBS and access shares etc.
(set up with static pool of addresses) ... when He is connected via VPN he
cannot access the Internet (gets a DNS or page not found error) ... if we
"uncheck" the "use default gateway.." checkbox on the advanced tab of the
TCP/IP properties of the client's VPN network connection properties he gains
internet access but loses the ability to access the SBS 'shares' and Exchange
server ...

(we have him login into his XP Pro box as a "local (this machine)" user ...
when he has used this XP Pro machine inside our firewall and logs in to the
network he can access the internet (i.e. no firewall restrictions on either
this machine or this network user)

is there a "cookbook" somewhere that shows how to set up an SBS 2000 server
and an external (from the internet) client ... that allows the client to
access the SBS Shares and Exchange (using Outlook 2002 client) and still have
Internet access ???

thanks

This ought to do it...

Accessing Internet when a VPN session to the SBS network is active

Does the VPN connection appear on the Connections page in the Internet
Options on the remote machine? Click that, click Settings, and enter the
proxy information as you would on a local client machine. That way, when
the user is connected over VPN, Internet access will go through ISA same as
if he/she were in the office.

Setting it up this way will prevent the user from browsing the Internet
outside of the VPN connection to avoid "split tunneling" - where the client
PC provides an un-firewalled bridge between the Internet and your LAN.
