Windows 10: Access shared folder on remote comp.with "net share" via VPN and IPv6?

In the past I mount a remote shared folder as drive W: in my local Windows Explorer with
a command similar to:

net use w: \\192.168.0.21\myshare /persistent:no

This works successfully on a IPv4 connection.

At first:
Which remote port does the "net share" command (implicitely) connect to on remote server?

Can I use the same command through a VPN and IPv4 connection as well?

Can I use the same command (with IPv6) address for an IPv6 command as well?
Example:

net use w: \\<IPv6 address>\myshare /persistent:no

VPN connecting but not the shared folder

I tried the steps provided by that link before posting on the forum. It's not helping... I still can't access my shared folder while connected to vpn...

 

Shared folders not accessable using file folder sharing after update?

Is there a reason you have ... NetBIOS over Tcpip Enabled: No .. It should be set to default.

Check your IPv4 settings ...
Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings Right Click on your network connection > Properties > Internet Protocol Version 4 TCP/IPv4 > Properties > General > Advanced

WINS Tab



DNS Tab




I see you have IPv6 setup ...

Does your ISP support IPv6 and do you actually use it ?

If not you can Disable IPv6 - Enable or Disable IPv6 in Windows | Windows 10 Tutorials

If it does and you want to use it ... you might want to check your router and make sure the IPv6 is setup correctly.

Note:
1. My ISP does support IPv6 and I have it setup in my router.
I use Googles DNS Servers for both.
The Google Public DNS IP addresses (IPv4) are as follows:

• 8.8.8.8
• 8.8.4.4

The Google Public DNS IPv6 addresses are as follows:

• 2001:4860:4860::8888
• 2001:4860:4860::8844

2. On my Netgear router for IP Assignment ... I have to use Auto Config vs Use DHCP Server so that my actual IPv6 address isn't shown (which can reveal unwanted information) and it uses a Temporary IPv6 address. You can check your IPv6 here - Test your IPv6.
