I connect to my work network using a VPN. I dial into an NT Server (lets call it Server1). Server1 is also the Exchange Server. I can read my emails and I can map any drives on Server1.

However, I also have two other servers - Server2(NT) and Server3(Win 2003). I can't ping either of these servers and I can't map any drives on them.

Can anyone tell me why this is??

Can ping VPN server only but not other resources

Symptom: after establishing VPN, you can ping and access the VPN server, but not other servers and the network resources.
Cause: 1. incorrect NAT/Firewall settings.
2. ISA/Proxy blocking.
3. Disable IP routing/forwarding.

I don't really know too much about the security aspects of it but one thing that strikes me a little weird is that when I do an ipconfig when the VPN is connected, the subnet mask is 255.255.255.255 - is that normal?

Also, when I do a route print there is no route for my company's internal network??
