Connecting to network drives using VMware

Hi,

I'm struggling to get my mac to see the files on the server at the moment.

I am running VMFusion to connecting some client apps and do my client work.

I have set up XP and created the VPN connection via the windows VPN set up in exactly the same way as my PC is set up,

BUT

When I open up IE and type \\server which is what I do on the PC, it says it cant find the network

I'm assuming there is some extra config I need which I am missing

Any ideas?

Can you ping any IP address' in your network? If ping works, try the IP instead of the name. if that works, then it's a DNS issue. If you can't ping anything, the issue is deeper and I'd have to see your settings to get an idea.
