VPN server and Internet Access

Q

Quang

I have remote clients needing vpn access to the corporate
network. The clients are running win2k or winXP Pro while
the VPN server is a win2k server. Currently the clients
are able to connect but once connected they can't browse
the internet. I am aware of the setting from the client
side to not use the remote gateway and use only local
broadband connection to get on the internet.

However, I do need the clients to be able to browse the
internet via the VPN access because we have resources from
other Internet sites that require we be in the corporate
network first. From the VPN server, I figure the only
configuration would be adding the static route with
network ID being 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 with the same
default gateway as with the machines locally in the
corporate network. Is there something else I am missing?

I appreciate any help with the matter.

Thank you.

There isn't really enough information here. How do your LAN clients get
to the Internet?

It the VPN server is also doing NAT for the LAN clients, you need to make
the internal interface (to which the VPN clients connect) an input to NAT.
Run this at a command prompt.

netsh routing ip nat add interface internal private

If the LAN clients use some other gateway to the Internet, it depends on
how your LAN is configured. A simple diagram of your LAN would help.
