i have setup in network connections a incoming VPN connection. I can connect to the computer from the outside but not see any shares is it because xp home doesnt support it or the router doesnt its a DG 632 NETGEAR. i havent tried seeing if i can access the computer from another one on the network.

This from another site. "Networking. The networking in Windows XP Home is not designed for use in any networking environment beyond the home or a small office; Microsoft themselves recommend that it should not be used in a network of more than around five machines ". It would seem that you answered your own question. It seems an upgrade tp XP Pro would be required.
