I have a router to router VPN set up. The routers are cisco and it is their
site to site vpn.
At site A I have a 2000 server and site B a 2003 server. The main network is
at site B.
Site A can see B and the Directory, printers etc but B cant see A. I get a
RPC server error.
I have done nothing special in setting up the servers, is ther someting I
have missed or not configured why sir B can not see A.
Any advice would be apreciated.
Thanks

Sounds like name resolution name issue. Can you ping a computer in site A by IP?

Thats the strange thing, site B can ping anything at site A but try and
connect, view or do anything else, its as though the other site is not
connected.
I have tried various tools, eg rpcping, but nothing shows up. From site A's
point of view, it can see the network although netdiag threw up errors. It
appears to be a RPC issue but not sure how to check to ensure that all is set
up correct.
