VPN established but cant see my drives or network
I may be missing something he like a server but I've read all I could
about VPN's and I havent found any answer. I have a home network set up and working well and I established a VPN connection through my wireless router that I access my home machines while at work. Two PC's on the home network: 1 XP and the other Vista home Ultimate 64 bit. The VPN connects to the Vista PC. Once i connect I can't do anything!! I can't see the drive even though I have it mapped. I know I cant run Remote Desktop Connection to see the machine b/c it's a Vista PC. How do I actually take advantage of the VPN I've worked so hard in setting up? I want to see my full network and have all resources available to me from a remote location. Do I have to have a server?

Can you ping the remote computer by IP? Or this troubleshooting may help.

VPN established but cant see my drives or network
I cant ping the computer that is hosting the VPN directly b/c it has an IP
address on my internal network of 192.168.0.106. Once i Connect from a remote location to that PC through a VPN connection and run ipconfig I see an IPv4 adress of 169.254.xxx.xxx (can't recall all of it). The IP address that I CAN ping is the ISP assigned static IP address i have for my service. I use port-forwarding on my Dlink wireless router to forward port 1723 TCP and 500 UDP, I also have to use the virtual server settings of the router for port 1723 (public) assigned to the 1723 port (private) in order to be able to complete the password authentication process ( I hope that makes sense). I will have to read through all of the various posts on the website you suggested. I do receive a error 53 from the remote location when I try to net view. "Robert L.

VPN established but cant see my drives or network
I do receive a system 53 error when I run net view \\MACDADDY-PC or net view
\\74.184.93.141 MACDADDY-PC is the Vista PC that I VPN into from my remote location (at work) the IP address above the LAN IP where the VPN PC is located. I know this must be a firewall issue but all ports 1723, 53, 445, and 500 are open on the wireless router. I'm still stumped!
