what's with VPN trashing my network printer?

I use MS DUN with the VPN adapter (PPTP) to establish my VPN tunnel to an
iDSL router so I can then start a display and printer session to an AS400.
If I then use MS Word or whatever PC software and try to print to a network
printer it can't find the network printer.  I'm on Win98SE.

Seems to be ditto with Windows Explorer?

Am I just on a different and mutually exclusive network?

TIA,


Jerry
