File sharing with VPN client
« on: September 08, 2008, 06:16:31 AM »
Made a successful VPN connection to a DIR-330. Can ping and RDP to the workstation on the LAN but cannot access files. Any ideas ?

Windows name resolution is based on broadcast traffic and will not route over a VPN.  Ensure you are making the request using the format "\\<ipaddress>".

The best idea however is FTP.
