yoink 321 #1 May 31, 2004 anyone know anything about VPNs? I've just set up a server for work wirth the intention of the clients being able to VPN to it - I've configured port 1723 on my firewall and can ping the server well enough through the VPN, I just can't see any of the files... The server is running MS Server 2003, and the clients a mix of 2000 pro and XP pro... any advice? ta will Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrazyIvan 0 #2 May 31, 2004 First of all, MAKE SURE IT WORKS, so, disable the firewall and try again, if it works then is a VPN config issue.__________________________________________ Blue Skies and May the Force be with you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yoink 321 #3 May 31, 2004 it works from my machine at home with the firewall inplace - just not from any of the client machines from the office... (There were set up before I was empoyed)... Is there some ticked option I've missed for viewing files over a VPN? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rdutch 0 #4 May 31, 2004 First off, did you share the files? Also what permissions did you set up for the $hares? The permissions wont change if you can see them, but you should only allow change permissions to people that are allowed to modify the files. Ray Small and fast what every girl dreams of!

yoink 321 #5 May 31, 2004 each user has full permission for their own folder and read-only access to every other folder. All relevent folders are shared and published... I'm well stumped - been on this all day and have no idea what's going on... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
