VPN Problem

[lmckee]

I am experiencing difficulty in allowing my VPN clients to browse network resources by IP and by NETBIOS names.

My clients connect and authenticate fine. Any suggestions on what might be causing the problem?

I do have VPDN entries that point to the proper DNS and WINS servers. Is there something in routing that has to be done too?

Do you have a route back to the client address that is assigned out of the IP pool range?

You should be able to ping a host at the central site from the client, if this fails I'd suspect a missing route. The other common problem I come across is when using NAT on the VPN device, the IP pool range has to be exluded from the NAT process

Just to add on what Andy has said (Hi Andy), if you can't ping the central clients after placing the apporiate routes, check on you central pix that you have NAT-Traversal applied for ISAKMP.

Hope this helps.

Ok, I have the ability to browse by IP address now but not by NETBIOS names...
