RRAS 2003 Dial-up

I am trying to set up a Server 2003 with the abiliy for users to dialup and
connect to the modems and use the internet like a ISP. The box has a ip and
it can get on the web fine. I went ahead and ran the wizard and all looks
good. I called into one of the modems and it connected, but it is unable to
get outside the server. It can ping itself and the server but nothing else. I
left all option defaulted. I would like to have it use the 192.168 range for
all that call in, but can also set up ligitimate ip's if needed. The only
thin that I notice on a pc that calls in to connect is the gateway ip is the
same as the client IP that calls in and I don't know where to change that.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated or any weblinks that could help set
this up would be great. Thanks
 
in most cases, the same IP for the VPN client and gateway is OK. See link below. Have you enable IP routing?

Why my XP VPN client's IP is the same as default gateway IP Unable to contact a
DHCP server - Event ID 20169. Why does my VPN server or client PPP adapter ...

Do your LAN clients use this server to access the Internet? Is it
configured as a NAT router?

If your server is doing NAT for the LAN clients, you need to add the
"internal" interface as a private interface in NAT for the remotes to work
the same way. This doesn't happen by default.
 
I want them to dialup to the server from home and be able to use the internet
connection I have them at work to do web related stuff. I don't have it set
up for NAT but that might be a good idea. Without nat would I just need to
set up a static route to connect the Internal network (modems) to the Lan
(network card in the computer) to get this running? I am not sure
 
It really depends on how your LAN machines (or the RRAS server itself)
get to the Internet.
