With VPN enabled I cannot share files to others PC on network

S

2 PC on a domain can connect and function normally. If I attempt to
share a folder on the laptop with VPN installed I receive this error:

"xxx 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 network path was not found."

BUT if I go into Network Properties and uncheck the VPN Client Driver I
can successfully share folders with no problem.

I have also tried stopping the VPN service and removing it from startup
but always I receive the error unless I basically remove the VPN driver
from LAN properties.

Using Symantec VPN 9.0

Thanks,

Check the VPN client "use remote default gateway" or similar setting.

I've been all through the setting I don't anything like you describe,
plus I don't even have to be running VPN in order to recreate this
issue. The current solution is unchecking the VPN Driver which is not
practical.
