   I'm trying to VPN into my home computer from my office. Home computer is   
   Windows 2000. Office computer is Windows XP Pro SP2. Home is on cable,   
   office is on DSL. When I tunnel into the home computer, the VPN   
   connection is established very quickly and shows up in the system tray   
   in each computer. I cannot ping anything, including IP addresses, on the   
   home computer from the office computer.   
      
   Home computer: 192.168.1.49   
   Office computer: 192.168.4.49   
   NIC on office: 192.168.1.103   
      
   There are several shared folders on the home computer. These folders are   
   visible over the LAN from other computers at home.   
      
   The firewall is not enabled on the office computer. There is no software   
   firewall on the home computer. Port 1723 TCP is forwarded through the   
   Netgear router to the home computer and through the Linksys router to   
   the office computer.   
      
   I have tried Start | Run \\computer_name\share, but the folder is not   
   found. The same is true with \\192.168.1.49\share or \\192.168.1.49\c$.   
   Suggestions for a solution?
