Tunnel Connection, can't see resource

Scenario:

Windows 2000 Pro, connected to the Internet, tunneled in to a remote office. Mail and regular web browsing work fine, but when I try to pull up a public web page hosted on the remote network, it will not display. If I disconnect the VPN connection, it comes up just fine.

On another machine running XP I have no problems under the same scenario.

2 questions -

Is there a way to change the network settings in 2000 to make this work?

What does XP do differently that it works automatically?

Thanks,
Andrew

When connecting on the win2kpro machine, after making the vpn connection, run ipconfig /all to see your network settings for the vpn connection (PPP Adapter).

Compare it to the XP machine, are they the same?

Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
