Unable to find Network servers
----------
I'm using Win2K Professional with the Cisco VPN Client. I'm able to connect via VPN successfully. However, I can't see any of the machines on the network that I'm connected to. I've tried pinging and even went as far as to turn off my firewall and it still fails. Are there any services that I need to check to make sure that I can gain access to the servers.

Seeing servers
----------
Try editing your host file on the client machine, add the IP and name of a server to the host file, then use START RUN, and type in the UNC path of that server, this should let you know if you can get to it.

If you want to browse, thats another thing, you need to use the same name for the workgroup on the client and the server, or if the server is in a domain, try renaming the clients workgroup to the same name.

hope this helps
