VPN problem – can ping, can’t browse

by pbtoms . Updated 24 years, 5 months ago

I am connecting two offices using SonicWall SOHO2 firewalls, which have a box-to-box VPN feature. In our main office, we have a DSL line that connects to the Sonicwall, which plugs into a Proxy Server. The Proxy/Sonicwall network is 192.168.168.x. The second NIC on the Proxy is connected to our internal network, 10.1.0.x. Our branch office is 10.2.0.x. With a bit of tweaking (setting up security associations for both networks on this end, etc.), I was able to get the VPN working, to a point. I can ping computers by IP address in the branch office. I cannot browse Network Neighborhood, however, nor can I ping by computer name. Our main server here is Win2k, and has WINS running. The Sonicwalls are set up to allow NetBIOS broadcasts. I would be very grateful for any assistance anyone can offer, and will provide whatever other information you might need, as well. Thanks!
