Re: VPN connected- but cant access LAN completely

Hi Lee,

Thank you for the clarification. I believe I understand what you are saying
on both counts. I just changed the PPTP options to pass through to the
Windows SBS server, and enabled the VPN on Windows. I am able to join
computers to the domain from there. All I need to do now is configure a WINS
server.

Thank you for your help!
