If so, these are my questions: Is it tru that VPN will break the SMB connectivity from NATted boxes to another LAN? Right now we are paying a fairly good sized bill for a 256k slice off of a T1 that is mostly voice. Every PC has it's own IP address. My communications office says that if I were to host these PCs with NATD over a VPN connection to the main subnet(they are considering broadband on our end for cost), that there would be a breakage in the connection to their NT PDC/BDCs and shares. Would a router/firewall with carefully scripted rules keep us connected, in regards to SMB?
