Accessing Remote Resources across a Virtual Private Network
SonicWALL VPN Clients, which cannot transmit NetBIOS broadcasts, can access resources
across a VPN by locating a remote computer by IP address. For example, if a remote office has
a Microsoft
®
SQL server, users at the local office can access the SQL server by using the server
private IP address.
There are several ways to facilitate connecting to a computer across a SonicWALL VPN:
•
Use the
Find Computer
tool
•
Create a
LMHOSTS file
in a local computer registry
•
Configure a
WINS Server
to resolve a name to a remote IP address.
