Or you could use LMHOSTS.

This setting is in the networking properties of your vpn client, under
windows 2000 select tcp/ip properties and then choose advanced.

Either select or unselect use default gateway on remote network.

If you select this, a route is added to your w2k box routing all traffic
down the vpn connection. Which is not what you want.

If you unselect this, only traffic destin for the network you have your
vpn connected to will travel down the tunnel...  this is what I think
you are after.

I have only one problem with this setup and that is that dns queries are
sent to my isp's dns servers and not my office network dns server. This
resolves domain names to external real world IPs and not our internal
range of IPs and can cause problems. My resolution to this was to use IP
addresses not dns names of the office machines when I am on the vpn.

Hope this was of some help.

Jeremy

Stupid me!!!!

I forgot to add the users to the "chap-secrets" file!!!

No I just need to remember the setting so that the user can browse
the Internet with their existing connection while the VPN is also
connected.

Any ideas?

thanks for the help All,

Lonnie
