Sorry for the topic everyone, but I am stumped on my VPN, perhaos someone
out there can help me.


I have setup a VPN on my Windows NT 4.0, SP6a server.  After some patching,
and what not I finally got it working.  I can connect to the VPN server and
browse the network and do all that good stuff - EXCEPT for anything on the
VPN server itself.  There are two shares that I cannot connect to no matter
what I do.

I did some reading and found this article snippet:

"If you want the VPN server to restrict incoming packets to PPTP and host an
Internet-accessible Web site, you can make a Registry modification that lets
other packets through the filtered interface to the local system only. Go to
the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RASPPTPF\
Parameters Registry key, and add the value entry AllowPacketsForLocalMachine
of REG_DWORD data type 1. When you make this modification, you expose the
RAS server to the Internet yet restrict incoming connections to the VPN
server, so remote clients can't see any other resources on your network"

While this isn;t exactly what I am trying to do it does say the registry
hack is for "AllowPacketsForLocalMachine".  Will this fix my problem?  If
not what will?
