It seems very unlikely to be a server thing to me. If I connect to the VPN on my main computer, it works just fine and everything on the LAN still works. It's only my other computer that disappears from the LAN when it connects to the VPN. So I've gotta figure that it is a local windows config.

The Roshal brothers (creator/distributor of RAR) don't license out the RAR algorithm AFAIK. They do provide a decompression-only library, which is why 7z and Winzip can open and extract RAR archives. -Original Message- From: hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware-
