Title: Securemote Client for W2K

This "browsing the network" issue is a result of Win2k (well, Windows in general), not so much SR, i.e. the same things happens on a Win2k machine WITHOUT SecuRemote installed if you connect the network cable after logging in.  However, on Win2k specifically, I noted that if a UNC is referenced first, network browsing then works properly.  If you try to browse the network before you do anything else, it will fail.  Explanations of this are welcome; I never researched it too deeply.

Subject: [FW1] Securemote Client for W2K

Can anyone point me to configuration and installation documents for the Securemote client for W2k?  Have downloaded from Checkpoint's site and installed successfully.....however, client is not working correctly.  The user gets authenticated at firewall, but cannot browse the network.  Internal network is NT 4.0, sp6a environment.  Checkpoint FW1 4.1 SP1.

Can't find any information on Checkpoint's site on installing and configuring this client.  Any help will be appreciated.
