I have a very basic question.
Have setup a VPN connection between two hardware devices.
LAN 1 : 192.168.101.1
LAN2:192.168.105.1
Now what I thought is in my networks I would be able to see both
LAN's..But this is not the case.

It isn't that simple.

Is there a simple way to allow the users to see the other LAN
resources??

You have to define "seeing".
If you mean Network Places, then that doesn't matter. The LAN could be
working perfectly fine and there isn't anything wrong with anything,...you
just don't see anything from the other subnet in Network Places.

Network Places is not "seeing",...it is electing a Master Browser that
gathers machine names based on the Netbios protocol and builds a "browse
list",...when you open Network Places is simply reads the browse list no
matter if the list is correct, incorrect, empty, or full. Netbios does not
work across subnets without a WINS Server,....of course then Netbois still
doesn't work over subnets,...it is just that the functionality of Netbios
gets replaced by WINS which builds a database and functions somewhat similar
to DNS in that it responds to queries from hosts.

If you mean something other than Network Places then you need to make sure
that you created the correct Access Rules on the two ISAs to allow the
traffic between the segments. The Access Rules on the two ISAs must agree
with each other.
Incorrect Access Rules will also cause WINS to fail.
