Make sure that the user is logging onto their remote computer with
credentials that allow access to the lan. If you logon to the computer with
different logon/password than is used to authenticate with the VPN the user
may be denied access if the users logon to the computer credentials are
passed to try and access the share which is often the case. Have the user
try to ping the computer offering the share by both it's name and lan IP
address to make sure it has connectivity to it and also try to connect to
the share using it's lan IP address instead of name as in
\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\share. --- Steve
