I have setup a New MS Win2000 VPN server. We have 4 different subnets and I have created static routes for all the subnets. The VPN server is giving out DHCP addresses from our pool, but when we connect to the vpn server we cannot get back out to the internet. We have a PIX Firewall and it is reading this as the IP address of the VPN servers Public address instead of using the new ip address given when you connect to the vpn server. Any ideas???

On the VPN client machines: Right click on My Network Places, click Properties. Right click on the VPN connection, click properties. Go to the Networking tab, highlight TCP/IP, click properties. Click the "Advanced" button. On the General Tab make sure that "Use default gateway on remote network" is unchecked... This should solve your problem...

Thanks, but this will not help as we have 4 different subnets and if we check off the box the users cannot get to the internal addresses.

Thanks anyway!

you have a few chooses to concider, the easy one id to disable the use clients default gateway in the dailup properities on the client computers.
Second is to reserver a pool in your dhcp for address for vpn. let your vpn server asign these addresses from its pool, configure the pool with the address you reserved from the dchp server.
if the firewall allows http access from these address then you should be fine.

Thanks for the suggestion, but we have tried to set aside a pool of addresses for the VPN server and we have also setup the firewall to allow access to these addresses and now we cannot see anything on the domain. It seems like anything to do with MS protocols here will not work.

Thanks!
