vpn connects, but work network unavailable
I can connect to my work network with the vpn. However, I am not able to
access the folders on the network. Is there some setting causing this problem? Would appreciate any help you can offer. |

Robert
Thanks for the response. After several hours of trial and error, I was able to make it work. I set up a workgroup with the same name as my work server. Then I changed the firewall settings for my work IP address to allow the various data transfer. "Robert L [MS-MVP]" wrote: > Browsing over VPN is popular issue.
