Problems with Windows 2003 RRAS

Hi experts! I have a head office with a server running under Windows 2003 Server Service Pack 1, and a branch office with an Windows XP Service Pack 2 client. When the client conects with the head office across RRAS, if I make ping to server, it not responds. The client conect to RRAS with standard modem using RTB aproximately 56k of speed.
Can you help me?
Thanks.

Is the windows firewall running on either the server or the client.  The ping (ICMP) traffic could be being blocked, if not by the windows firewall, by another firewall, or possibly a "filter" in the RRAS connection.
if no firewalls, can you find any entries in the event viewer?

any other software installed such as ISA?

Hi experts.
Windows firewall is not running in client, neither in server. The RRAS Server doesn´t have any type of filter configured. There is not errors in event viewer.
Thank you.
can you ping the client from the RRAS server when connected?

Is RRAS running on the 2003 server you are talking about not being able to ping (ie. just a single server setup we are talking about?)?

Between client and server are ping, in both directions. The problem is that the ping fails from client to the network where is connected the server. Sorry for my English ;-)
Thanks!
Gotcha...

can you actually access other servers/computers on the "home office" network with the XP client?  Is the problem that you just cannot ping them, or that you cannot access them at all.

From XP client I cannot access other servers/computers on the "head office", neither cannot ping them.
Thanks!!
