VPN service causing Win98 machine can't find the server

HI,
I have a windows 2k server. It is running AD, DNS, DHCP
and WINS. I enabled the Routing and Remote Access for VPN
service with one NIC card(behind a hardware firewall).
The server's ip is 192.168.0.5. The VPN service grabs 10
ip's for itself(192.168.0.158-167). The Win2K and XP
workstations are having no problems accessing the server
(when pinging the server, it is pinging to the .5 IP).
But the 98 machines can't find the server, they all think
the server's ip is .158. Can some one give me some hints
on how to resolve the issue?
 
Make sure you've applied the regedits in 292822. Do options 044 and 046
(0x8) exist in DHCP-server, Scope options?
 
Try:

1. Locate and click the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\RemoteAccess\Parameters
\IP

On the Edit menu, click Add Value, and then add the following registry
value:

Value name: DisableNetbiosOverTcpip

Data type: REG_DWORD Radix: Hexadecimal Value data: 1 or 0. 1 =
DisableNetbios.

Or, because #1 may adversely affect browsing ability by your VPN clients,
use and lmhosts file on your Win9x lan clients:
