Remote access

The remote access features of the Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003 family enable remote or mobile workers who use dial-up communication links to access corporate networks as if they were directly connected. Remote access also provides virtual private network (VPN) services so that users can access corporate networks over the Internet.
