I currently have a VPN setup sorta working using Samba and PoPToP with what appears to be just a small problem. The clients can connect to the server over the internet just fine and once connected, all of the computers on the lan can be pinged. When you click on Network Neighborhood on the client computer, a list of all of the computers on the VPN connected Lan show up as they should. The problem arrises in that if you click on one of the computers the following message comes up \\Computername is not accessible The computer or sharename could not be found. Make sure you typed if correctly, and try again. This message comes up for all of the computers except for the vpn server that the cient is connected to. I am however able to map network resources by ip using the net use command net use t: \\computername\sharename After I map any resource on a given computer to my local computer, I am then able to click on it successfully from the network neighborhood as I should be able to.. but only the computers that I have mapped a resource from. I assume that the misconfuguration is on the server side. My initial though was that maybe the WINS server is not functioning correctly.. I also attempted to use a lmhosts file to list explicitly the ips for the computers, but that resulted in the computers no longer showing up in the network neighborhood.. If anyone has had this problem, or just has a guess as to what the problem might be, I'm open to suggestions..
