Can't print locally when connected via VPNI have a remote office (192.168.4.xx) that connects to our central office
(192.168.1.xx) via soft MS VPN (PC to SBS Server) to access Exchange, SQL, etc. That remote office has an IP networked printer (192.168.4.110). When a user in the remote office is NOT connected to the central office via VPN they print fine to their local printer mentioned above. When that user IS connected via VPN they canno print to the local printer. All the reports they try to print are queued up and as soon as they disconnect from the VPN all the reports print. Can someone shed some light as to why and suggest a solution? Thanks Steve
