Can’t access remote resources over XP VPN host

Q: I established a VPN fine from Server2003 & WInXP(Client) to my VPN Host (WinXPpro). How does the client see the Host’s IP range and LAN?

- My VPN-Client I specified the VPN_Outgoing_IP: 192.168.0.11    in it's
TCP/IP
- My VPN-Host I assigned the VPN_Incoming_IP range 192.168.0.2-192.168.0.10

Thus the two communicate with each other fine. 100%

BUT…
How do I see my Host’s LAN (Server, other LAN shared drives/Folders/Printers)?
=> (My VPN-Client and Host’s LANs are >>> IP range is 10.0.0.x)

Should I change one of these LANs IP Ranges? WIll they then ping and shared Network resources?

Would appreciate the help.

A: XP as VPN host is peer to peer VPN. You should use a server as VPN server. Otherwise, you need to make the XP as a router that is not recommended.
