Finding a server/computer over VPN
Hi
I have set up a VPN on my Vista laptop, to my office, and can connect to it fine. However, I cannot see my office server to access files. In XP, I created a shortcut by connecting the VPN then choosing Search/Printers, computers or people/A computer on the network/ then typing in the name of my office server. I cannot work out if there is a Vista equivalent of this. If I choose 'Computers on the network' I get an icon for my printer and my laptop, but cannot figure out how to access my work server via the VPN. Anybody help, and let me know how to get onto my work server via my VPN? Thanks
