Hi (again) folks, I have given up with GBAuth, since there seems to be no further information available att his time and I cannot make the configuration work with it's use - following the VPN Client documentation to the letter.
What I do have as it stands is the ability to use the VPN Client to: - Connect to an ISP and tunnel through - Get access to the Intranet - Get access to Mail Servers - Get access to user shares containing application synch's needed on some standalone systems (I defined a couple of systems in the hosts file and mapped them - ok) So far so good. But I also want to connect to some shares on a PDC - untried until now. Given the success above, I thought that as long as I presented the IP Address or hostname of the PDC (defined in hosts file), the connection should be possible. Not so. With the VPN Active, the following is true: - VPN Client can Ping the PDC - PDC can ping the VPN Client However the VPN Client can NOT map a drive to the server - it gets a "Windows cannot find the path specified.....blah.....blah" This when either the direct TCP/IP or the PDC name is used. I have tried defining the domain in the LMHOSTS file (and I know this works as we have a true static VPN between ourselves and another remote office) which works fine. I have tried an account in the domain, and an account on the Laptop only. I must be missing something here - anyone done this successfully and have any details of teaks at the client or Gnatbox ends that had to be implemented? Thanks for any help.
