Questions - does the second computer fail to browse the network only when
connected with the first, or even if it's the only VPN client?

In either case, is the VPN adapter on the machine that doesn't work getting
a different IP from the machine that does work? If so, have you edited
/etc/hosts on the samba server to include this IP?

Ok, Heres the scenerio I have. I have a PPTP server and a Samba Wins server
[v2.05a] up and going on our work lan network. I have it configured properly
since I have tested out the VPN on my computer and I could see the network
thru network neighborhood. The problem is that I have a second computer
[both with Win98] and ive patched them both from windowsupdate.microsoft.com
for securety holes and it seems that the second computer cant see anyone in
the network neighborhood. Im not connected twice and both computers have the
*same* configuration properties when getting into the VPN. I can the remote
computers and access the share thru \\<Computername> but I *need* to have
network neighborhood working for the clients. I even checked the browse.dat
and wins.dat file to see if the computer was registered and sambas database.
Any suggestions?
