2k3 Server SBS- Unable to see Network Resources on VPN

[JustWakinUp]

Hello guys

I have SBS 2003 with RRAS up and running and I am able to connect to the server via VPN. Here is the thing, while on the VPN i have zero network resources available to me even if logged on as the administrator. I am unable to ping other machines on the network through VPN and I have no internet connection while on the vpn either. Please help me out with this issue, im spinning wheels here

Can't access the remote network from VPN clients

Symptoms: Your VPN client can ping/access the server but not other computers in the remote network.

Resolutions: 1) if you have two NICs in the VPN server, you may need to enable IP Routing. To do this, go to the RRAS>the Properties of the server>IP, check IP Routing.
2) Make sure you don't uncheck Use the remote default gateway on VPN client's VPN connection.
3) Make sure VPN client's LAN and the remote LAN are using the different IP range and subnet.
4) Use routing table to troubleshooting.

Well thanks for the reply but no cigar.
I tried that suggestion along with the some others
on that page like making sure the home LAN was not
the same IP as the remote LAN. I can now only ping
the server, I am unable to get to the network resources
by \\computer_name and that is a must. However I can get to
the resources on the server that are shared \\192.168.x.x and that seemed to work out fine. I don't see other computers on the network besides the server and that is of concern as well. Any and all help is much appreciated, thanks
