VPN and what can I expect to see?

When I establish a VPN connection to a Snow Leopard Server will I be able to see or use applications from other servers on the same network?
Or do I only get to use what is on the Server I connected to?
And the only way I have found of using anything on the Snow Leopard Server is connecting to it with Apple remote desktop? Is that it or am I missing something?
I can connect to a server with VPN and I have all data routed through VPN ad I can not browse for server and see anything?
I have a functioning VPN into my newest Snow Leopard Server but I would love to use data from the Leopard Server that sits next door. I am able to install client software on the Snow Leopard Server and start it up and have it connect to my database but I am hoping to bring 2 or 3 remote users into the network simultaneously and have them use the database on the Leopard Server?
Does Apple have a VPN setup guide anywhere?
Thanks group.

The Airport and Time Capsule are good home routers, and good WiFi devices.
They're also configurable as good access points, which is handy if you're running multiple WiFi devices to get coverage in a larger area.
The devices are not particularly capable firewalls for use with servers; that's not their target market.
Specific device suggestions? I've worked with various stuff over the years, and I generally end up either following the client's gear preferences, or running some research based on the bandwidth and expectations and features for the installation. And the budget; for a bigger budget, you can often get better features or easier integration. And the products and offerings and features change regularly in this market; each time I do this, I find different gear.
Here's the general path...
There are commercial and open-source options available.
The open-source packages can generally convert a two-controller spare PC into a firewall, and most (all?) can operate with a selection of embedded x86 boxes.
In general, I look for support of VPN (L2TP and PPTP minimally, other protocols if and as available), look for explicit listings of Linux and Mac OS X details in the manuals (not because you're going to necessarily use Linux or any particular operating system here, but because the vendor went to the effort to test with a variety of platforms), and I look for a vender that does not require downloading a VPN client, for NAT, reasonably programmable port-forwarding, and possibly (as additional features, or as specific requirements) DMZ, RADIUS, anti-malware and anti-spam mechanisms.
Oh, and download and read the product manual before you buy the box. See if it makes any sense. (I've found this step invaluable for reducing the numbers of candidate boxes I need to evaluate.)

    Hi,
    1.  Can you elaborate on this one?
    2.  You can rotate a layer using the transform tool (hotkey: Q).
    3.  There is a workaround for this: select the component you wish to duplicate in the library panel, right click and choose "Export Library Package", then right click and choose "Import Library Package", re-importing the package you just exported.
    4.  Could you elaborate? I didn't understand what you're trying to do.
    5.  Check this out: http://peopleinaction.free.fr/catalyst/pia-lib/Main.html. Look at page 2/4 (Containers).

  • What can I expect in the way of reception if my base station is in the house and the computer is in another building (2 exterior walls, 30-40 ft distance)??

    What can I expect in the way of reception if my base station is in the house and the computer is in another building (2 exterior walls, 30-40 ft distance)??

    Depends on things like the building structure and overall building makeup inside and between these walls. It will probably be fine, but there is only one way to find out for certain.

  • What can I expect of my 4s with wifi  connectivity. My 4s receive a signal from the same router I have always used. My 3G would pick up a signal throughout the house, and my 4s won't allow me out of the room. Is my new phone defective or just inferior.

    Hello,
    I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod Touch, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
    Restart the Computer. This sometimes happens to me when I keep my Windows 7 on Sleep, and I try to sync my Ipod
    Make sure you have the latest version of Itunes
    Hope that helps!
    If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
    Cheers!

  • What is going on with my phone and what can I do to fix the problem?

    This is the second time this has happened to my phone. For some random reason, it decides to shut off on me. No matter how many times I press the home button or the lock button, it still acts as if it's powered off. It makes no sound, nor any vibrations. Like I said, it acts as if it were powered off but if someone else were to call my phone, you would still here a ringing as opposed to being sent directly to voicemail, all while my phone continues to remain dead. Last time this happened, it didn't end up working until the next day. FYI, battery power is still running while this is going on, and if I were to connect my phone to the charger, it would still remain dead... Why is my phone reacting this way, and what can I do to keep this from happening?

    Hi there harely95,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Issue not resolved
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • Hi, my MacBook Pro has become very slow... what could be causing this and what can I do to fix it?

    Hi, my MacBook Pro is working very slowly.. what could be causing it and what can I do to fix it??

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the problem.
    Step 1
    Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
    Step 2
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • TS1702 I'm getting an " application" cannot be downloaded at this time message. With any app I try to download/update. Why is this happening and what can I do about it ?

    I'm getting an " application" cannot be downloaded at this time message. With any app I try to download/update. Why is this happening and what can I do about it ?

    I am fighting the same error. I gifted an album to mydaughter and she got that when she tried to cash it in. iTunes support was quick to respond saying the would refund in 5 to 7 days. That was 13 days ago and they will not respond now. Try to contact support to see if they can help. Also be sure you do not have restrictions enabled in settings. If your parental controls are set to block certian content ratings this will give you an error as well.
      You could also try to purchacs through the iTunes program on Mac or PC. Check your restrictions there too. If your device is company owned your employers may have restrictions enabled preventing certian apps from being installed. Hope that helps.

    I opened an attachment on an email claiming to be an order confirmation from Amazon.  I now have several copies of it on my desktop and can't delete them.

    It is highly likely that this attachment is malware. It's also highly likely that it is Windows malware. So you're probably not infected with anything. What is the exact name of the attachment you opened? Please be sure to include whatever extension the filename has (such as .exe, .pdf, .doc, etc).
    What happens when you try deleting the attachment files from your desktop? Is there an error message of some kind? If so, what is the exact error message you're seeing? (Please don't try to paraphrase it... tell us the precise wording of the message.)

    Hey Paul,
    If I understand correctly, it sounds like iTunes is not grouping the songs from a particular CD together. The cause could be something as minor as a misspelling or slight variations. For more information, see the following resource:
    Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?
