I already found some information on this problem here, but I still can't get it to work.

Im trying to access some network resources on my server via vpn over the net. Im using a win7 home pc here and a win server 2008 rc2 with installed ras&routing role on the server.

For vpn authentication I use a local user on the server with vpn-access. This user also has the rights to access to the network resources, but it neither finds the server under network nor is it able to connect the network drives...

In similar topics here I found out that using the same credentials for vpn-authentication and network resources access does not work, but using different user for access didn't work either.

All of these examples I found were in an active directory structure, but I don't have an active directory here.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem without having to use an active directory?

Thanks
