Site To Site VPN

Ok, here is my dilemma. I have two offices running Server 2003. Both have
RRAS configured. I've setup a a demand dial interface on both ends.
Connection is fine and the two machines are talking and sharing. My problem
now is I want to share the resources of the remote server onto the local
network.

As I stated I can share and map drives on the server machine itself but how
can I make those shares available for everyone else on the lan? Thanks in
advance.

Can you ping the remote server? If yes, you can create a logon script to map the remote server shared drives.

Yes, I can ping the remote server no problem. Can you give me more info on the logon script? Thanks!

Just to verify I can only ping the remote server from the local server...

The first thing to do is to check that you have configured the site to
site VPN correctly. If you have set up the static routes on the demand-dial
interfaces, you should be able to ping a workstation in one site from a
workstation in the other site. If you cannot do this, you still have work to
do with the routing. There is no point in looking at sharing or mapping
until you have that working.

If you cannot ping site to site by name, it may be a name resolution
problem. But if you cannot ping by IP address, then the routing on the site
to site link isn't working.
