Browsing the remote network can be difficult if not impossible over a VPN connection. There are too many variables that can hinder this.
To make browsing work a little easier, you might want to edit the HOSTS and LMHOSTS files on the VPN Client. These files are located in the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc directory for XP and Vista. For Win9x find those files in the \Windows directory. For all Windows OS version just make sure to follow next steps:
- Add a line in the files with the LAN IP address of the VPN server followed by its name.
- e.g - 192.168.1.100 SERVER
- Add in the LAN IP address and Name of any other computers on the remote network that you may want to connect to.
- Make sure the workgroup name is the same on all computers.
- Make sure to map the network connections with the Windows Explorer
