So, I have Active Directory window server, I am planning to set VPN. I was wondering if I install Network Policy Server and Remote Access on where I have my ADDS installed(Main Server), will the VPN work? Do I need to register the Network Policy Server with the Active Directory or I can't leave this alone and still make it work?
