VPN Connection Settings for mass deployment
Hi everyone,
I am not sure where to post this question. If it doesn't pertain to this board please advise me. Thanks.
I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 server which has RDWeb and RemoteApp configured and installed for outside users. User from outside first establish a VPN connection to the server then browse to RDWeb. The process of creating a VPN connection is manual right
now. I would like to have a "package" or "script" that my users can run on their computer which will create them a VPN connection to our server. I have a static IP, and don't want to use "Default Gateway".
Please advise if this is possible to do.
Users will be using all of the following OS:
Windows XP
Windows Vista
Windows 7
Windows 8
Thanks

Thanks for the feedback.
So, there is no copy and paste way for a VPN connection? I am not using DC deployment so this seems a bit of overkill.
Thanks

Hello,
With CMAK you can design 32 & 64 bit versions of the Windows VPN client pre configured and compiled into an easy to set up executable. Then either have the clients download and install them from FTP server or just give it to them on a
CD ROM or something.

How to install CMAK on the server:

here is a pretty good step by step to configure the client, it's for 2003 but you get the idea:

Yes, you can automate VPN settings using CMAK. Also, use MDT to automate the deployment.
