I have 2 sites each running Win 2k3 Server with a common active
directory using a VPN tunnel on our firewall to connect the two sites.
At site one we have an external VPN server setup to allow our remote
locations to log in and access Docs etc.
At each site we have the users home folders for that site setup up in
a data folder at that location. An example is Site 1 User A, B, and C
each have a home folder under \\server1\data\A etc - Site 2 User D, E
and F, have a home folder under \\server2\data\D etc. We didn't want
to sync all the home folders bwteen the sites to save space on our
servers.
The problem I have is that a half dozen or so users travel back and
forth between the sites. and also use the VPN from home to connect to
the server. As I said before the VPN is ony to Site 1. Site one is
Subnet 10.0.1.X and Site 2 is subnet 10.0.2.X When users connect to
the VPN at site one I cannot get them access to the site 2. I can't
even ping tht site from the VPN connection. I know I have something
in DHCP set wrong but I that's a whole other problem.
What I want to do is take the half dozen or so users and have their
folders duplicate each other at both locations and update each other
for changes. We have been using Synctoy to replicate our Company
shared data, but I was hoping to find a better solutions for the users
home folder. Since we only do that sync at the end of each day. Some
of these user may be at site 1 then drive to site 2 which is only 20
minutes away and be working there after that, so the update times need
to be realively short or real time.
Any help you can give is appreciated.
