Hi all, This problem is driving me nuts. I've been researching it for weeks now and can't find a solution. I have a Vista Home Premium desktop, an XP pro desktop, and an XP home laptop all connected to my LAN. I can set the XP pro desktop up to accept VPN connections and everything works as expected (from the LAN side as well as the WAN side of my router). However, I can't get the Vista box to work as a VPN host. I can connect to it, but I can't map shared drives. I'm only trying to map by IP address and only on the LAN side of the router, for now. I can connect a VNC client through the VPN, so I know the connection is ok. When I try to map a network drive that is shared on the Vista box (\\10.1.1.55\R), I get, "System error 53 has occurred. The network path was not found." after several seconds. If I replace the share name, R, with gibberish I get the same error, but it returns the error immediately. Does anyone have any ideas about what the problem might be? Thanks in advance! -JT -- jtvista Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |
