Remote desktop and VPNI have 2 computers (a laptop and a desktop) connected to my router at home.
a. I connect my laptop to my corporate VPN. The laptop obtains a new IP address. b. The desktop is connected to my local router and has an IP address of 192.168.x.x I want to Remote desktop from my desktop to my laptop. Is this possible? Thanks Suresh can they ping each other? I am assuming the corporate IT may disable home network between those computers.

disables the local LAN access. Show quoteHide quote "Robert L [MS-MVP]" wrote: > can they ping each other?

Ping the laptop through the VPN tunnel *AND* the laptop is running XP Pro with Remote Desktop enabled then you should be able to connect from the desktop to the laptop... -- Show quoteHide quoteAl Jarvi (MS-MVP Windows Networking) Please post *ALL* questions and replies to the news group for the mutual benefit of all of us...
