Like the title says when win7 clients VPN they can't access shared folders on win2008, usually it says permission denied.
They can access shared resources on win2003 just fine.
We use a Linux firewall for VPN access. domain and dns, using dfs namespace,
It mostly does not mater if they use \\ip\share or \\servername\share
i tried the follow with limited success:
I downgraded the server and the windows 7 workstation to use smb1, instead of the default of smb2.
Registry entries in:
SERVER:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
Created a Dword entry of Smb2 with the default value of 0.
Rebooted
WORKSTATION:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters
Created a Dword entry of Smb2 with the default value of 0.
***********************************************************
After the above change, I was able to access a shared resources on win2008 by using the \\ip-adress\share it promoted for user id and password.
Thanks for your help, hope this all makes sense....
