Hi

Have a site to site VPN problem
The network servers are Microsoft windows server both 2000 and 2003.

At the remote site using an ASA to ASA VPN clients could pick up email
from an exchange server buy not send email.

The site with the exchange server could VNC to the machine that could
not send email

When one browsed the network one could see only local machines. The
domain controller at the remote site had lots of id event 1311 in the
directory log.

Machines could not connect to an SQL server using active directory
credentials but could get to a web site on the same machine.

Change the remote site to A PIX 501 solved the problem


Mugged config of remote site


Thanks in advance for any help

Perhaps you need the command:

same-security-traffic permit intra-interface

X-No-Archive: yes

Unless miss understand the command I do not think it would help our set
up is


Email------ASA-------Internet-------ASA------Client
Server

I believe that command would make all sites communicate in the following
set up


Email------ASA------Internet-------ASA-------Client
Server |
|
|----------ASA-------Client

To clarify
At the remote site using an ASA to ASA VPN, clients on the remote
network could pick up email from an exchange server but not send email

How do the clients connect to the exchange server? Are they using POP3
or exchange profile?

One thing to also try is from a client on the remote end, open a DOS
prompt and try to telnet to the server:

telnet 1.1.1.1 25

Where 1.1.1.1 is the IP of the exchange server, do you get the SMTP banner?

Unfortunately I did not try that. Put ping worked fine.

An other problem was that if I tried to synchronize with the time server
at the main Site I got various net work errors. such as network error
121. These cleared once a pix was used.

Also two laptops that had been used at other sites could collect mail.
It was not IP dependent as if I took one laptop off the network and gave
another machine its IP address that machine still could not send mail.
If I gave the laptop another IP it still could send mail. I do wonder
if it was a problem with netbios encapsulated as TCIP.

Currently Left Pix in place so people can work. Like to sort problem
before I try the ASA again

Thanks

Ping could work all day. ICMP is not TCP, please test the telnet and
post the results.

Unfortunaly I cannot do that test as I need to get the site up and working.

The main site cold establish a VNC connection on port 5900. So there
seamed to be TCP connectivity. Just remembered Outlook webmail worked is
you typed in the IP address of the mail server but no the server Main in
a browser.

2 things

1. If you can connect to resources across the tunnel via the IP address
but not host name, then you have DNS problems. DNS is not TCP it is UDP.

2. Are you using RPC over HTTP? Cache Mode?

I see you are using this ACL on the ASA for communication between the sites:

access-list inside_nat0_outbound extended permit ip 10.0.50.0
255.255.255.0 10.0.20.0 255.255.255.0

So you are allowing 10.0.50.0/24 to 10.0.200/24 but I do not see where
you are allowing 10.0.20.0/24 into the 10.0.50.0/24 network. Are you
syslogging the ASA, can you capture some traffic and post it?
