The Laptops are Wireless. They are joined to the domain but are on a
wireless segment. The laptops are receiving IP addresses from the DMZ and
establishing a VPN tunnel back into the network fine. They are unable to
open any shares on the domain. There usernames Authenticate fine for both
logging onto the domain and the VPN. They just get an access denied error
when trying to open shares.

This is where I think I confused you...sorry bout that. For testing purposes
I took each username and logged onto a computer wired to the internal
network, from there the user accounts worked fine (ie. was able to access
the shared folders).

I used a seperate segment for the wireless network and vpn tunnels back to
the server for security reasons. This was the fastest and cleanest way to
set it up (so I thought).

Does that clear up your questions. Thanks for your help and if I left
something else out let me know.
