| | VPN connects, but no file shares Hi all. Both the laptop and office PC are running Vista64 Ultimate. I can connect with the laptop just fine. The connection registers my username and pw. And on the desktop (host), I can see the client connection. However, I can't use my existing file shares, or even create any new ones. Browsing Network Places from the laptop doesn't show the other PC. Here is my ipconfig info from the laptop (remote) computer: PPP adapter VPN Connection to home: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.101 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : Ethernet adapter Bluetooth Network Connection: Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Wireless LAN adapter Wireless Network Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : hsd1.or.comcast.net.

Any advice would be appreciated... -Larry |
