Re: vpn can't access shares

I am not using wins............. i can ping any of the computers on the
network fine........... just can't access any of the shares on the server.
I can't get past the user name and password box........ i have tried every
username i can think of that is setup on the server itself. (it is a domain
controller)

thx

I am stumped on this one???

I am establishing a vpn to a windows 2003 R2 domain controller that is
behind a Linksys RV042 router using the pptp server built in it. I
am using a winxp box and the native windows vpn client to connect. When
connected i am accessing the windows server like this: \\192.168.1.10 and
it prompts for user and password. I put in
"administrator" and the "administrator password" of the physical
win2003 server and it will NOT take it. I just dont understand it.

I tried the same thing on a win2k server behind the same exact router
and it take the crudentials fine and i can access all the shares fine.

advice???
jeff

Are you using WINS? If not, give it a try.

I assume all traffic is allowed between a VPN client and server and you
are using split tunneling (the local gateway)

Having difficulty reading or finding responses to your post?
Instead of the website you're using, I suggest to use OEx (Outlook Express
or any other newsreader), and configure a news account, pointing to
news.microsoft.com. This is a direct link to the Microsoft Public
Newsgroups. It is FREE and requires NO ISP's Usenet account. OEx allows
you to easily find, track threads, cross-post, sort by date, poster's
name, watched threads or subject.
It's easy:
