Have a 2003 server located outside of the Domain network over a VPN. The server originally existed inside the network (10.1.1.0/24) but now exists on 10.10.12.0/24. I can access shares over the VPN to the domain controller, but when I try to log in as a domain user it says the domain is unavailable. I added the domain controller as a WINS server on the 2003 server. nbtstat -c on the 2003 does list the domain controller and the domain.

Daniel, I'm using ipsec for a VPN. Since all shares are working and name resolution all netbios packets seem to be traversing the VPN no problem. Thanks.

Yeah. I don't think it's the VPN blocking traffic. I think my WINS server is not functioning properly. I'll keep working at it.
