Thanks to all who replied to my post. I have been trying to solve this
problem with my IT department for months. The problem was resolved the
same day I posted to your list serve. Many people wrote in to help me
out. The solution was to use the IP address to connect to my work
computer desktop, rather than the computer name. Many hit this problem
right on the head and even more impressive - they communicated this
message effectively to a person with limited computer knowledge.
Thanks again to Bob Marvin, Bill Ott, Tim Kokes, David Nicholls, Abhari
Farzane, Zakai Kinan, and Josh Higham for your help. I'm writing this
email from home computer, but utilizing my at work email and it's all
thanks to you all!

Subject: [VPN] problem with VPN
Hello. I am not sure if this is the correct forum to post problems with
VPN, but my IT department is at a loss so I'm trying anything. I am
trying to use VPN to access my work computer from home. I am able to
connect successfully and ping my work server, but can't access any
network computers or utilize remote desktop connection. Are there any
known issues/solutions concerning this issue. My home computer is
running Windows 2000 and is set up under a workgroup. I log on as
administrator (no password). When I search entire network for computers,
I only come up with "workgroup" under "microsoft windows network". Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
