Hi there, I have two computers, one Windows XP other Windows 7 (actually a dozen each) which are members of a Samba domain. Users have no problem login in to the domain, running the login script to map network drives and accesssing files on them, for both computers.
I want to give users remote access using a VPN (OpenVPN to be exact). The idea is to login on a disconnected computer using a domain account cached profie, then connnect to the VPN, then map network drives. OpenVPN allows running a batch file on connection sucessfull and I use this to run the user login script from the PDC netlogon share. The Windows XP computer does this fine. Happy remote users. But the Windows 7 doesn't. It asks for user login and password for each server (network drives are on different samba member servers) Someone told me the problem should to be related to the fact the TAP adapter (the VPN virtual network adapter) is considered by windows as an "unknown network" and classified as a "public network". But I could not find a way to turn this into a home / work or domain network location. I already tried customising and disabling windows firewall, no changes. Any ideas on how to transparently access network shares from domain member servers over a vpn using windows 7?
