Many companies have their ISP's smtp server setup to forward all their e-mail, which would fail the proposed test. With a distinct lack of RR IPs, this would include anyone who isn't big enough to have their own block of Ips. Regards, Craig F. > -Original Message- > From: Tom Carroll [ma

I tried this, on one of the Windows computer. I changed the subnet to 255.255.0.0 which would include both of the private subnets on both networks. (the class B network subnet was just for a test, not a permanent setting). However, this didn't solve the issue. I know that NetBEUI/NetBIOS isn't

I was thinking along these lines too. In the IPSEC VPN section of the Server-Manager is offers a section where you can make the remote server the WINS server for the network. On the "client" server I set the WINS server to the internal IP of the "server" server. Would this be a good solution or

Windows networking of the "network neighbourhood" kind depends on broadcast traffic from the master browser on the network. I'm guessing this system isnt broadcasting traffic across the VPN. I'm not 100% sure, but modifying the subnet mask on the windows machine might work. The easy way is to edi
