Internet only works after I VPN into other office???????!!!!!!!

[Suzanne]

I hope someone can help me with this. It is quite odd. I have two offices.
Office A and Office B. I regularly use VPN at both locations. Office A uses
SBS 2000. During a storm Wednesday, we lost power several times within 60
seconds. After that happened, I discovered that I could access the server,
get email (both POP3 and Exchange) but could not access the internet. I
rebooted but that did not help. When I am connected to Office B server (just
the first step; not remote desktop), I can then access the internet.
The second problem is that when I am at Office B, I am now unable to remote
deaktop to Office A.

Does anyone have any suggestions???
Thanks in advance

Check with the admin and make sure no tunneling changes were made on the VPN
device. this can affect what you are talking about.
