I have setup a vpn to vpn with a snapgear soho+ router on each end of the internet. I can ping computers on either side of the connection. I'm using IPSEC to make the connection. How do I map drives? I can't see the computers under Network Neighborhood. Do I need to install any other software? I'm using Win98 and Win2K on both sides of the tunnel. By the way this is my first VPN and I'm happy I got it to communicate.
 
I am new to VPN, but what I have my users do is to run a batch file everytime they log on using 'net use'.
 
Put the 2 different computers into the same workgroup. They should be able to see each other then. Also if you have trouble maping the network drive still, use the IP address of the machine instead of it's name.
