Unable to resolve UNC names using Microsoft VPN connector when trying to create mapped drives

Hi all,

I am running into an issue where I am stuck.  I have recently changed out an old SBS2000 domain controller, taken out of service, and replaced with a new Windows 2003 Standard server Domain controller.  I have Routing and Remote Access setup on the server at the moment, but also have the option of doing VPN on the firewall appliance that is on the network.  I am able to connect and authenticate to the RRAS from the Microsoft VPN connector on a Windows XP laptop.  The problem that I am having is that I have to use the IP addess of the file server to connect to shares, which what I really need is to have the server name resolve through the VPN connector so that drives that are mapped inside the network will resolve and reconnect once the user has logged in through the VPN connection.  Looking for the best way to resolve this issue.Start Free Trial
