I've got a server running Windows 2008 R2
This server is in a datacenter outside of our office. Our office firewall is configured for VPN tunnelling, to connect our office with the data centre.
I can ping (and RDP) to the remote machine with no problem
I've shared a folder on the C:\ drive (just called "shared")
However, if I browse to \ - it doesn't appear. Same as if I do \\shared Just times out and says cannot find etc...
I've turned on file sharing etc
Even tried turning off windows firewall to rule that out.
