I have never setup a VPN before but decided it would be handy for file transfer & running my work database over it. Also handy to no too.

I have got it setup this far, now its beat me!!! Basically I have a windows XP Pro computer connecting to a Windows 2003 SBS Server. To cut a long story short. I have them both connected over the VPN no problem..... BIG however...

I cannot see the network on the server, I cant see any of there shared folders or even the server when I look in the network neighbourhood or workgroup computers..

Hopefully its just a simple settings ive left out!!

Any help greatly appreciated!

Thanks for your quick reply mate!! When I get to terminal services properties, this is what I get:

Sorry, had it backwards, its Deny this user permissions to log on to any terminal services and you want it unchecked

Still having no success. Im connected 100% from the XP Pro machine to the Server.... Just cant browse the servers files. Any other ideas mate?

Thanks so much for your help!!
