Hello guys,
About a month ago, I took over as the sysadmin for a little state government facility and I'm at a bit of a loss on one particular issue (so far). The previous sysadmin retired and steadily ignored more and more requests and problems leading up to his retirement, so the infrastructure is terribly out of date. (I could rant about his poor decisions and neglect for dozens of paragraphs, but I'll try to stick to the topic at hand...)
Remote access today is done using the global VPN client on a 15 year old SonicWall, over a secondary internet connection, broadcast wirelessly from an antenna, provided by our ISP. As you might expect, it has issues. Most of the time it causes more frustration for end-users than anything. The problem has been on-going for at least a year. So one of my primary goals is to work out a better method.
