I just spent the last 2 nites trying to establish a VPN connection to my friends machine using Wingate and its been an exercise in frustration. We could only get to the point where we see the tunnels established in both directions, but could see no Workgroups under Microsoft Network and could not see each others machines. We cant ping each other either.
He was able to join my VPN but thats all. I could see his IP address and machine name, and he mine, but no other information.
I also had to totally turn off ZoneAlarm firewall to get this to work at all to the point that it did. I looked thru all the Wingate message boards and made changes but, in the end, we could not see each others machines or shared files (other than what is mentioned above).
Host is Win98 running Wingate VPN and DNS2Go with cable internet. Remote is running Wingate VPN remote on Win2000 machine with DSL internet.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
