Hi Gareth,
Thank you for posting in SBS newsgroup.
From the description, I understand the issue to be: you have created VPNfrom remote client to SBS, however you have encountered some issue when the
remote client accesses Shares/printers of SBS. If I have misunderstood your
concerns, please do not hesitate to let me know.
Please check the following steps to see how thing goes:
1. Make sure that you have selected Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP on the
remote computer and SBS as following:
1) Right click My Network Places and select Properties.
2) Right click Local Area Connection (client computer)/Network Connection
(server) and select Properties.
3) Click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and high light it. Click Properties.
4) On the General tab, click Advanced. Go to WINS tab.
5) Make sure that you select Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP.
6) Click OK twice and close all the windows.
For detailed information, please refer to the following KB article:
318030 You cannot access shared files and folders or browse computers in
the
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=318030
2. Make sure the TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper service and the Server service and
the Workstation service are running on SBS and remote client. You may check
them through running Services.msc.
3. On the remote client, open the LAN connection properties and then make
sure that the Client for Microsoft Networks is selected.
4. Please disable ICF in your remote client. To do so:
1) Click Start, and then click My Network Places.
2) Under Network Tasks, click View Network Connections.
3) Right-click the connection that you use for the Internet, and then click
Properties.
4) Click the Advanced tab.
5) Click to clear the "Protect my computer and network by limiting or
preventing access to this computer from the Internet" check box.
For detailed information, please refer to the following KB article:
298804 Internet firewalls can prevent browsing and file sharing
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=298804
5. Check if "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks" is installed
on the remote client:
1) Right click My Network Places and select Properties.
2) Right click Network Connection and select Properties.
3) On the General tab, check if you have selected the option of "File and
Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks".
You may also refer to the following KB article:

About
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=314872
6. Please try to uncheck Use default gateway on remote network:
1) Open the manual VPN connection and then click Properties.
2) Click Networking tab, and then high light TCP/IP.
3) Click Properties and then click Advanced.
4) On General tab, uncheck Use default gateway on remote network.
5) Try again.
If the issue still occurs, would you please help me collect the following
information?
1. Can you access these Shared/Files and Printers located on SBS from the
local client computer on SBS domain?
2. Can you access these Shared/Files and Printers located on SBS from the
other remote client computer?
3. Get the ipconfig/all result from VPN client computer and SBS.
4. Do you have ISA installed on SBS 2000?
More information:
Configure VPN access on an SBS environment:
1. Run CEICW, follow the wizard and select Enable firewall and then make
sure Virtual Private Networking (VPN) is selected in the Services
Configuration page. And make sure you have typed the public FQDN of the SBS
server on the Web Server Certificate page.
2. Run Remote Access Wizard in Server Management\Internet and
E-mail\Configure Remote Access, and select VPN access in the Remote Access
Method page. After finishing this wizard, RRAS is configured to allow
inbound VPN access, and it can assign IP addresses to the VPN clients by
using DHCP.
Note: When we run the remote access wizard to set up the VPN service, we
need to input the public IP address or the public FQDN of the SBS server.
We need to make sure that the address can be accessed from the internet.
3. On the VPN client, go to https://publicFQDN/remote, clear I'm using a
public or shared computer, log in and download Connection Manager.
4. Install Connection Manager on the VPN client.
5. Is there a hardware router installed in front of the SBS server? If so,
ensure that the port forwarding for TCP 1723 and GRE port (protocol number
47) are opened. PPTP VPN is negotiating a connection on TCP port 1723 and
send data to and from the PPTP server using the GRE protocol (IP Protocol
47, 0x2F if you are looking in Network Monitor). You should open port 1723
on the router and also make sure IP Protocol 47 is allowed.
Hope this information helps. If you have further questions or concerns on
this issue, please let me know.
I appreciate your time and look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Crina Li (MSFT)
