_____ Da: Sean Rector [mailto:sean.rec...@vaopera.org] Inviato: lunedì 2 febbraio 2009 16.29 A: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Oggetto: RE: Outlook through VPN issues Guido, I've experienced this issue with my laptop users on occasion. It appears that the problem is with the network that they're on when they try to open Outlook over the VPN. An example is this - one of my users is in a particular hotel, connects with the VPN (Windows VPN client, to ISA 2006), and opens Outlook, they get a timeout - no matter how many times they retry the connection. It won't timeout resolving username and server. I've had the user then go to a local wifi (Panera's or similar), and fire it up in the same manner, and they connect just fine. We all know that once you establish a connection with a VPN, you should be able to transport any data/port over it, but my only guess in these situations is that there is something on the hotel network blocking the Outlook connection, even after the VPN tunnel is created. When they experience this, I suggest to them to use OWA - either over the VPN or not - and they're fine with that. Sean Rector, MCSE From: HELP_PC [mailto:g...@enter.it] Sent: Saturday, January 31, 2009 12:54 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Outlook through VPN issues I connect a user in a workgroup to a corporate remote domain through PPTP VPN with his domain credential. The connection is successfull an I can even map drives from remote server. I create his account on Outllok2003 sp3 (OWA works OK) in cached mode The exchange server name is well resolved giving the internal IP and the user name as well, but when trying to download the items I get a Exchange Server unavailable response. Could be an authentication problem or what other ?
