Accessing Shared Files over VPN

[Guest iondy]

Hi Folks,

I am having trouble trying to access any SMB shares when connected through 3G(or 2G) to my VPN. The VPN connects, and using VXUtils I can see that Host names resolve correctly to IP for my network, I can ping by host name and IP to my devices and I can do an ip range scan and it finds all the hosts connected to my home network. I can use RDP to connect to my XP machine through host name (With or without using pocket hosts), but I cannot access any shares! Just to make matters a little more complex, if I connect through my wireless network (no VPN) everything works fine!!! I will be trying someone elses wireless network and using the VPN this afternoon but I expect this to work - it is only when using the phones data connection.

Oh yes, and the VPN itself and forwarding on the router etc is all fine as laptops and desktops can connect remotely.

It is a Vario 3 on T-mobile. ;)

Any ideas? :(

Thanks.
