Would someone from microsoft please post a step by step process or link to an
article about how to set up a fully functional VPN between Vista business and a Server 2003 network using the Vista VPN client? I can reliably connect to the VPN on my office network, but cannot access the fileshares. Please list the requirements at both ends, ie what protocols need to be running, what services need to be running, etc. Our XP boxes do this with no trouble, but my vista business laptop won't see the network shares. I can ping, and I can remote desktop to any computer on the network, but no access to the files shares. Please let all of us know what is the correct setup, or admit that this is a bug and will be fixed soon. It is really hard for me to recommend this vista upgrade to my users if we can't do this basic and necessary task. And I really think that Vista is pretty good. But these little quirks in vital features are definately slowing down our migration. -- Russell Reid |
