I have 2 computers set up on a LAN Homegroup. One of them is connected to the printer, on the other I configured a VPN server with Windows 7's VPN. The client is a third computer that connects via the internet. The problem is that although I can see that we are connected through the VPN, the client can't access the shared folder, the printer or otherwise connect to my Homegroup.
I did some research and to that end I:
- set a static IP for the VPN server and forwarded port 1723
- made sure I can ping the other computer
- set an "everyone" for the shared folder in sharing and security
- enabled everything on both firewalls that had anything remotely sounding like it had to do with it
This is my first time setting up any sort of network. Is there anything else I need to do or have done wrong?
