        No, not authentication to pfSense, authentication to the file server - the 2 are completely unrelated.

        When you connect to the file server, do you have to specify a username and password?

          im on a domain, and i am the administrator i can simply browse the network, if i use an alternate user on the computer which is not on the domain then it does ask for user name and password

              that is from the vpn what i described is when im connected to the vpn i think there should be some integration from open vpn on the firewall to the dns server on my network which is not taking place so that it can be added to the user under policies almost like routing and remote acess

                To be blunt, I think you need to bring in somebody with more experience than you have.  If DNS didn't work then you wouldn't be able to map the share.  From what you've said it all sounds like an authentication problem.  When you map the share across the VPN:

                a) Is the remote device on the domain?
                b) Are you providing a username and password?
