    VPN - how do you connect to local network HDD's on own LAN


    Hi folks

    Those of you who use VPN's - is there any easy way of accessing networked hard drives on your LAN while connected to the VPN -- I can do it treating the lan as connected over the Interenet but that's a hassle - I want to use standard lan connections via simple networking -- possible or not. Windows 10 Machines.

    Cheers
