If you are using your Linksys device as an ipsec endpoint [ not using VPN
connectoid] for your VPN connection then you should have access to your
network if you have a successful connection. Try to ping your lan computers
by their IP addresses to see if you have basic connectivity. If you do have
connectivity can you access any server?? What specific error messages do you
get when access is denied? Try to access a computer by its lan IP address
instead of name to see if that makes a difference as in entering
\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx in the run box using the actual lan IP address of the
server you are trying to access as shown when running ipconfig /all on it.
Also look in Event Viewer/security log of the server to see if any logon
failures are recorded which may give helpful reason as why the connection is
not working. --- Steve
