   Dave,   
      
   Thanks for the info, but I don't think my reseller is capable of   
   supporting this VPN effectivly.  I was finally able to get some drives   
   mapped and when I try and transfer files, I lose my connection.  I think   
   I'm going to find a VPN solution that the company can control that is   
   cost effective instead of having some jokers try and manage this.   
   Sheeh, when I got the connection up, the account manager told me that me   
   not being able to map any drives or see anything behind the Netscreen   
   VPN was my problem not theirs.  That would be fine if I was the one that   
   configured the VPN, but they did so I have no idea on how they have it   
   setup.  BTW, will the Netsceen VPN pass Netbios, assuming netbois over   
   tcp/ip is active?   
      
   TIA!!
