VPN routing problems?

B

Brian Heil

RAS question

I've got a Windows 2000 DC behind a NAT router (d-link Di704p rev B.) and a
windows 2000 domain member server doing VPN.
The DC is handing out DHCP addresses (192.168.1.100-199) and is the DNS server
for the domain.

D-Link IP: 192.168.1.1
DC IP Address: 192.168.1.254

VPN Server has 2 NICs
LAN NIC: 192.168.1.252
LAN Netmask: 255.255.255.0
LAN Gateway: 192.168.1.1

VPN NIC: 192.168.1.253
VPN Netmask: 255.255.255.0
VPN Gateway: 192.168.1.1

The D-Link router has ports 1723, 500, 50 and 51 redirected to the VPN NIC
server (192.168.1.253)

Routing and Remote Access was set up using the VPN NIC and a DHCP relay agent
is set up on the VPN server.

I can connect to the VPN server from a client on the internet, and ping both
the 1.252, and 1.253 interfaces.
I can also ping 192.168.1.1 and of course the VPN interface of my internet
client (say 192.168.1.120).

What I can't do is ping the DC (192.168.1.254) or in fact any client on the
192.168.1.x network. Sort of.
Sometimes, I can get 1 reply from a particular machine, then the request times
out. Once I could actually ping the DC, but after disconnecting and
reconnecting I no longer could.

Can anyone help me out here? What am I doing wrong?

Here is the ipconfig /all output on the client when connected:

this may help quoted from http://www25.brinkster.com/ChicagoTech
Can't access the remote network at home only

Symptoms: you setup VPN on a laptop connecting to the office VPN Server.
At home, you can connect and authenticate just fine but can't ping any
address on the remote network. If using the same laptop in a different
location, the VPN works.

Cause: The problem is the home LAN (VPN client) using the same IP and Subnet
as the remote LAN you were trying to dial into.
