VPN - Why doesn't it work?

[pmedinacl]

Hi all,

My scenario:

internet-------linksys RV042---------switch-----Windows 2003 server (no
ISA) and all the other PCs

The RV042 is my VPN server. I am using it's PPTP functionality.


The problem:
One of my users can not access Exchange or shared files when connecting
from her Active Directory account to the VPN. However, if she uses her
local computer account and launches the VPN client from here, all is
fine.

I already tryed net use \\server_name /user with no change in the
outcome.

Any idea what the problem might be? Why is it that accessing the
resources only fails when connecting from her domain account?

Thanks in advance,
Pablo.

You may want to try net use \\server_name /user:domain\username.
