RAS : wrong entry in routing table

[=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Patrick_Br=FChlmann?=]

Hi!

I have defined a new RAS phone book entry ( modem on COM1 ).
Once this connection is dialed, the PC get the address from the server

Client address : 192.168.1.2
server address : 192.168.1.1

and new routing table entries are defined.

When the connection is closed, these routing entries are deleted from
the table.

But sometimes, by closing the connection, a new routing entry is defined
which will route the server address 192.168.1.1 to the LAN adapter
instead of the RAS adapter.
This entry will later conflict with the one created during the next RAS
connection.

Any hints why this entry is sometimes created in the routing table ?

TIA
Cheers,
Patrick Brühlmann

Are you sure that's what happens? Seems very unlikely.

When a RAS connection is made, the current default route is disabled (by
increasing its metric) and a new one created to the RAS server. When you
disconnect, the added route is deleted and the old one restored. See KB
254231 .
