System hangs when opening shared folders through VPN

G

Guest

I've been trying to fix this for such a long time now...

I have two offices, about 90 miles away from eachother. The offices are
connected via 2 netgear FVS114 VPN units.

On one computer, I am successfully able to access the network shares of the
other offices. Browse shared folders, etc etc.

On the other two computers, I can successfully see the initial share window
when I type \\computername.

But when I try to double click into one of the folders... it times out. The
computer basically freezes for about several minutes then gives an error.

The error states:
\\brian\fbdata is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you
have access permissions. The specified network name is no longer available.

This happens on 2 of 3 computers. The third computer gets in and browses
just fine. All computers are XP Professional.

I really hope this is something small. I heard such great things about this
VPN unit... I'm a consultant and am contracted to set up this companies VPN.
They are obviously losing patience.

I hope I explain this problem correctly... if it is unclear please let me
know.

If anyone can help... I will be very very grateful.

Thanks!
