VPN_Clt needs to see VPN_Host's LAN Resources(Server/Printer?Fldrs

[Guest]

Hi

I established a VPN fine from Server2003 & WInXP(Client) to my VPN Host
(WinXPpro). How does the client see the Host’s IP range and LAN?

- My VPN-Client I specified the VPN_Outgoing_IP: 192.168.0.11 in it's
TCP/IP
- My VPN-Host I assigned the VPN_Incoming_IP range 192.168.0.2-192.168.0.10
Thus the two communicate with each other fine. 100%

BUT…
How do I see my Host’s LAN (Server, other LAN shared drives/Folders/Printers)?
=> (My VPN-Client and Host’s LANs are >>> IP range is 10.0.0.x)

Should I change one of these LANs IP Ranges? WIll they then ping and shared
Network resources?

Would appreciate the help.

XP as VPN host is peer to peer VPN. You should use a server as VPN server. Otherwise, you need to make the XP as a router that is not recommended.

Thanks Robert. So if I make my Server 2003 the VPN Host, the clt will be able
to access all the Host's LAN resources?
