Something changed for VPN into windows 2000 server after upgrading client OS

[Robert]

All,

I've spent a couple of days trying to research this.

Here's my setup that I'm trying to VPN into.
W2k server:
internal addy: 192.168.1.11
subnet: 255.255.0.0
DNS: 192.168.1.11
WINS: 192.168.1.3

Client:
OS=w2k pro
PPP adapter
IP addy: 192.168.1.209
subnet mask: 255.255.255.255
GW: 192.168.1.209
DNS: 192.168.1.11
192.168.1.11
Wins: 192.168.1.3


I have a constant connection on the client computer and I can connect
to the vpn on the server and get authenticated, but I cannot map
drives or even ping.

Before the client was upgraded to w2k pro, it was running windows 98.
No problems.
Now that the client had a new drive installed and w2k pro intalled,
the user can no longer ping any internal ip address at the office
(including the vpn server (192.168.1.11), thus no work can get done.

I'm not sure what to look at since VPN was not touched on the server
in the office since the user was able to successfully log on before
client upgrade.

any ideas?


Thanks,
Robert

can you ping the server by ip, 192.168.1.11?
