vpn help?

[caterman]

Hi All
I can make the vpn connection but not map a drive from outside?
At Work I can vpn to the xp box host and can map the drive from inside ip 192.168.1.x. I can also establish by using an outside ip of 62.64.x.x get the connection and map the drive.

From home or from another location I can make the vpn connection but neither location will make the map of the drive.

I saw to turn off the use remote host gateway and did so, That got internet back when the vpn was established but still no map of the drive. Any help? Thoughts.

Oh all machines are xp pro, all locations have linksys routers with the correct ports forwarded I believe. no firewall are currently on. I have set the server box on the dmz but that did not help.
