How to connect Win XP Home compter to Win SBS 2003?
Can't seem to be able to connect Windows XP Home computers to a Windows Small Business Server 2003. Even when I install "Connect to Small Business Server" connection manager. It doesn't log in.
Is it in the setup of "Remote Access" on the Server?
When I set up "Remote Access" I use local router's DCHP (192.168.1.1 for example) but then it asks for "Server name" -- i.e. vpn.companyweb.com) - so I put vpn.mycompanyweb.com there and when I try to connect using "Connect to Small Business Server" connection manager it starts ticking on "connecting to vpn.mycompanyweb.com -- does it mean it's actually trying to access a web server vpn.mycompanyweb.com? How can I point it to the local server?
As stated above xp home is only for home users not to be used in a domain. If upgrading is not an option (to xp professional) then map a drive and create the same user account on SBS as you have in xp, this bypasses security alittle but the map drive has to be shared. There is no logging into the domain though. The Remote access again is not really compatable with home, using remote desktop is ok although for a SBS server there is a limit on how many "users" can login to it (I believe it is two and it has to be administrator or an administrator account with remote access checked).
