I've created a PPTP connection to my W2K server from my XP machine at =
home with the goal of mapping a shared folder from the server.=20

I have 2 connections now. My dsl connection to the internet and my vpn =
to the server.=20

My question is, when I look for a resource like a website or a specific =
resource on the server, how does XP know where to look? Obviously if I'm =
looking for \\myserver\share I want it to choose the vpn path.
