Vista VPN with XP Client

Looking for some help getting my laptop (XP) to VPN with the work VISTA
Ultimate.
Can Ping Vista Server however cannot ping XP client.
Have checked Names, workgroups, disabled/enabled security. Is there a
VISTA/XP networking issue?

Thanks

Can XP ping its PPTP IP?

If you cam access the XP, using ipconfig will give you PPTP IP. If not, go
to the Vista VPN connection, check the details.
