You do not have permission to the share or the share bios name is not being recognize. Check the wins and DNS servers are correct or that permisions are granted.

The individual who you are trying to map, go to their login script and make sure that they have that connection listed. If you don't have rights to do this then ask someone who does. Good luck!!

VPN shuts off the rest of the network. You won't be able to get to anything except the drives on the machine you're logged on to.

It's very difficult to say with the amount of information you've given. There are a variety of ways to implement VPN and most errors of this type are related to the specific implementation. For example, it matters a great deal whether the VPN is aserver on a firewall or whether it is a server or workstation inside a firewall.

More information would be helpful.

If it is any other solution but RAS or RRAS, browsing is near impossible to implement. Try pinging the server by IP. If that's possible, try mapping to it as an IP address followed by the share name, i.e. 10.10.90.59\share.
The second issue is authentication. If you are having problems with browsing, authentication is sometimes affected as well. Are you actually logging on to the domain??? Or are you authenticating at the VPN to allow access without actually logging on to a domain??? I can't begin to help you n that one with the info you've provided, but drop me a line if this sounds familiar.
