[pptp-server] Network neighborhood

On this same note you can specify the client to use the WINS server that you
create.
Samba's WINS server is easy to set up and run... it works really well for
me. You can even see all the other dialed up VPN clients.
So in the dialing properties for the client you specify DNS and WINS
settings For me this has worked really well with win2k/winnt and win9x
clients

I had this problem... initially. If your running a WINS server at your
office, then specify "ms-wins ipaddr" in your /etc/ppp/options file. This
fixed the problem for me.

If you not running a WINS server, then I can't help. Although you might
change your WORKGROUP setting to match your work environment. IF all else
fails, I guess you can enable Samba's WINS server.

Hi,

I successfully set up PPTP on my server and I am able to connect to
my office network without any hassles.  There is only one slight problem
here
though, I cannot see the network neighbourhood.  I'm able to link remote
shares explicitly (mapping them manually) and I can access all network
resources.  Proxyarp is enabled.  Please help!

-Ralf
