Randy-
I've been experiencing the same effect, an I attribute it to the fact
that the Browser service is broadcast-based and the connection is too
slow to support effective use of Network Neighborhood. The "Net Use"
command works from the Command Prompt, allowing you to connect to
network drives. Once you map a drive, you can manipulate files using DOS
commands. You can set up Exchange/Outlook profiles using the network
*.PAB and *.PST files, via the mapped drive.
Hope this helps. If you solve any of the problems associated with PPTP,
please let me know. Happy holidays.

I am attempting to use RAS and PPTP to allow for a virtual
private network
from Win95 clients to my NT Server over the Internet. I set
everything up
and connected without much trouble. However, I cannot see any of
the
server's drives or resources from my workstation.
If I click on Network Neighborhood, I get an error saying I
cannot browse
the network. I can, however, initiate TCP/IP requests that
tunnel through
and pass on to the Internet, such as checking mail at my ISP's
server.
Anyone have any luck doing this?
TIA,
Randy
