Printing over VPN
Hello,
I was hoping someone could help me. I have a Win98 computer that needs to print to a printer attached to a Win XP machine over a VPN. The VPN is set up between two DSL modems. I was able to install the printer, but when I print to it I get an error & the printer goes offline. I am not able to browse the workgroup over the VPN either. I set up the printer using the IP address of the XP box & the printer name. Any ideas? Thanks! Mike

Printing over VPN
Thanks for the reply, but that really doesn't help me. I can't browse for
the printer because for some reason I can't see workgroup computers over the vpn.

Printing over VPN
can you browse workgroup when you are physically at the remote machine ? if
not , then I would look at that problem first.. check your VPN settings ...you should be able to .. check for 'allow Local LAN Access' feature.....then file and print sharing should be available (as well as browsing) Cheers!
