I have a server at work that's running Windows NT 4 Server w/ SP6a. I'm trying to connect to it on a Windows XP PC over the internet through a PPTP using RAS on the Server. I can establish a connection with the XP client and I can ping the IP addresses on the office network from a DOS shell. I can't, however, find the computers in Windows XP "Network Places" even if I search by IP address. I tried using the "Net Use" command to create shares but to no avail. I'm sure that not being able to find PC's by name on the office network is a DNS issue but I don't understand why I can't find them by IP.
Also, the NT Server is directly connected to the internet and is routing access to the rest of the office Using Sygate software. Thus there are 2 network cards in the server. This was done because the ISP wanted to charge a ridiculous amount more more if we used a router to share internet access. This option was the loop hole. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
