Hello,

I have setup a vpn solution for my company and am having
no issues with users establishing a vpn tunnel. However,
I have several broadband users who establish a vpn
connection with no problem but then are unable to browse
corp. resources.I have tried mapping drives for them,
using the run command and they get the eror
message "Network cannot be found" which is bogus. These
same users at other times can view resources...it seems
to be an intermittant proble. Causing be a big headache
from upset users though.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks,
JoeB

Open the advanced properties of the VPN's tcp/ip
protocol and remove the "use default gateway on
remote network".

They can't access anything by name unless they have your WINS server in
their dialup connection's TCP/IP settings. Without that they are stuck with
IP#s only.

Ignore Network Neighborhood, what is shows or doesn't show is almost
irrelevant.

Other considerations:
If "use gateway on remote network" is enabled they can access resources in
other subnets on your system, but cannot independently use the Internet
because *all* their traffic will go into your system.

If "use gateway on remote network" is disabled they can access resources
only within the same subnet as the address they receive from your system
when they connect, but they will be able to independently use the Internet
at the same time without effecting you.
