Mapping drive through Cisco VPN

by dagnasty . Updated 23 years, 2 months ago

We have a client that is connecting to our network via the Cisco VPN client. They connect succesfully but can not map to a network drive. When they try to they are told that it drive is not found on the network. If they ping it, they find it and it resolves. When they try to map in DOS it says they are not authorized. I assumed this to be because they were using the default user logon information from windows so we changed it to prompt but back in Windows it says there is no domain server to authenticate against.

I had him check his WINS configuration Tab under TCP/IP properties. The “Use DHCP for WINS Resolution” is not selected. It is not available as an option because under the IP Address tab he has specified IP Addresses. He cannothave it obtain an IP address automatically because locally there is no DHCP. IP’s are all issued statically because it is required to run under a secureNAT client.

Any thoughts ?
