I set up a vpn connection to a Windows 7 computer using the Windows client software.
I can connect to the vpn from another computer outside my private lan no problem.
I have a shared printer on the private network that is shared from the computer accepting vpn connections.
On the computer outside the network, I added the printer as a network printer...ie \\computer name\printer, and it found the printer and set it up with no problems. The printer driver is also installed on the computer outside the lan.
But when I print a test page or document, nothing happens. What do I need to check?
Windows firewall is setup, and both computers are on same workgroup name and Home network profile.
