VPN and access network

[Piddepadde]

Hi,
I have a conigured a small network at work consisting 4 computers.
They have internet access through a d-link router (DI-614+)
I have also configured a VPN-server at one of the computers at work
and a VPN-client in a notebook at home.
The router contains a firewall that allows me to redirect "VPN-ports" to a
specific
IP-address (just one).
It works fine...... but I have only access to just that computer
cotaining the XP VPN-server at work.

How to reach the rest of the computers at work and share those computers
files and printers???

All the computers at work have fixed IP-addresses but I cannot ping those
IP's from the remote VPN-client.

The computer containing the XP VPN server has one fix IP-address in the
local network (192.168.0.100) and a VPN IP-Address (192.168.2.125) all
asigned by me.
But what VPN IP-addresses does the other computer get on the local network ??

Thanx for any help.

sounds like you have routing issue because the LAN and VPN have different IP
range.

You migth have better success using remote desktop. Forward port 3389 to the
computer, enable RD on the XP machine, then connect via RDC.
