You have established connection to you remote network via vpn. I

should use Network File System (NFS).

What I want to do is access shares on the server via UNC.

Hi Bill,
The UNC notation assumes that your client system knows the shares you
are trying to access by their Microsoft names. If I am not mistaken,
that requires that your client receives and processes NetBIOS
information. My experience with VPN's is that NetBIOS isn't normally
passed through the tunnel unless it is specifically configured to do so.
Perhaps this is part of your problem.

Well, this DOES work when I access via the plain-jane (i.e. NOT the
Cisco client) VPN connection from Windows. So I am assuming it will
work with Linux. FWIW, when I make the VPN connection through this PPTP
client, it tells me the following:<br>
<br>
Using interface ppp0<br>
pptpconfig: monitoring interface ppp0<br>
Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/2<br>
MPPE 128-bit stateless compression enabled<br>
local IP address 10.1.8.82<br>
remote IP address 69.8.148.12<br>
primary DNS address 10.1.2.1<br>
secondary DNS address 10.1.2.3<br>
pptpconfig: pppd process exit status 0 (started)<br>
ip route replace 69.8.148.12 via 192.168.1.5 dev eth0 src 192.168.1.105<br>
pptpconfig: routes added to remote networks<br>
pptpconfig: DNS changes made to /etc/resolv.conf<br>
pptpconfig: connected<br>
pptpconfig: restoring routing and DNS configuration<br>
ip route del 69.8.148.12 via 192.168.1.5 dev eth0 src 192.168.1.105<br>
mv /etc/resolv.conf.orig.WJE /etc/resolv.conf<br>
pptpconfig: routing and DNS configuration restored<br>
<br>
This tells me that 1) a secure connection is made and 2) there is DNS
in the 10/8 address space.<br>
<br>
So where do I go from here? Ultimately I want to connect to the remote
desktop, but can't figure out the syntax for that.<br>
<br>
(BTW, on my Windows laptop, I have to FIRST make the VNC connection,
and THEN fire up the remote desktop client).<br>
