For years I have used a VPN server at work to connect several machines
at home as well as, of course, my laptop when I am on the road. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, I cannot map to or even ping my laptop from my main work machine at home. I can still map to the other two machines in my house though. As far as I can see nothing has changed. The laptop is logged into the VPN server and I can map from the laptop but not to it. Could anyone suggest what is going on here and how to fix it? Thanks for this! |
