1. Win XP pro set up as VPN server
2. Another computer at different location setup as VPN client
3. Client and server make a connection everytime

Q.= How do I get access to the file and folders on the server?
 
Try using the UNC...... From "Help and Support"

******************************

Universal Naming Convention (UNC)

A convention for naming files and other resources beginning with two backslashes (\), indicating
that the resource exists on a network computer. UNC names conform to the \\SERVERNAME\SHARENAME
syntax, where SERVERNAME is the server's name and SHARENAME is the name of the shared resource. The
UNC name of a directory or file can also include the directory path after the share name, with the
following syntax: \\SERVERNAME\SHARENAME\DIRECTORY\FILENAME.
