Ok, I set up a VPN on my Widows 2000 SP4 server. Its our
only one. The one for routing internal traffic is
10.0.0.5, the one for the VPN is an external ip address.
I have already used it to VPN into the workplace.

But here's the problem. After a while -- particularly
whenever I'm out of the damn office -- they can't connect
to the internet. In my DNS console I have it set to
listen to DNS requests just on the internal NIC. I have
set up Routing and Remote Access for routing. I did have
forwarders used for a while pointing to our ISP's DNS
servers, but then its slow as heck and after a while
nothing works, including Internet and the LAN.

If anyone can think of anything I'm missing, I'll take it.
This issue is just killing me.
 
If it happens mainly when you are out of the office, I would suspect it
is related to the VPN connection. DNS can be upset when a VPN client
connects, if the RRAS server is also the DC and DNS server. See MS KB
articles 289735 and 292822.
