Default search for pc over vpn using ip address

Hi All

I am trying to set Vista64 up to connect to my work place.

In XP this is what i do:
Have a VPN set up to connect to our workplace and then in my network places
use search for computers and search for the server or any networked pcs using
their ip address. I then map the portions I want.

In Vista I have set up the VPN and it connects sucsefully but I just cannot
find a way to search for other computers by ip address so I can set up the
maping.


Can anyone point me in the right direction with this

Regards

Martin

I believe at this time there is a known issue with Netbios over IP not
passing over native VPN connections. I believe that this is known issue
that will be addressed either in SP1 or via a patch prior to then.
