Cannot get to NTServer although VPN is working

[mburnford]

I can set up a VPN from Cisco VPNClient3.0 to PIX506 v6.0(1) and then telnet to a UNIX host on 192.0.0.128, but I cannot get a logon dialog to the WindowsNT Server on 192.0.0.65. The UNIX, NT Server, and PIX inside interface are all on the same LAN 192.0.0.0.

I can ping the NT Server on 192.0.0.65 but how do I get a logon prompt to enter the domain?

Many thanks

Have a look at this - sometimes connections to terminal services/file&print etc can have problems with MTU size (therefore pings work, but no real connection)...

Failing this, you can set a lower max mtu with some dodgy network utility or find the key for network parameters in the registry (on the server and client) and add a "maxmtu" entry of around 1400...

Try it! you'll be surprised.
