If anything, I may take advantage of your dilemma to create a step-by-step guide to getting WM5's VPN up and running for the 6700.

i need to be able to access files on the network as i almost always have sprint service, but don't always have wifi for my laptop when i'm on the road. |
Ah, is the 2k3 box your own or is it your company's? I believe that the only way to be able to access your files is by using something such as file explorer is with OpenVPN.
I can throw together a guide for setting up a VPN connection using Windows XP and the 6700 with WM5's native client. You should be able to adopt this to make it work with 2K3 if you have access to the machine.
If using WM5's client and Windows 2K3 does not work for what you want, then I should be able to throw together a guide setting up an OpenVPN server on your 2K3 machine and setting up the OpenVPN client on your 6700. |
the 2k3 machine is my companies. i have openvpn on my router. the it guy here has accessed files on the network using the vpn and total commander.......
