Creating a VPN and allowing Internet access

G

Guest

I have an SBS 2000 server and a remote XP client. I'm using a dialup (VPN) connection on a broadband connection to log into the server all works well except for I can't access the Internet. I have read and tried to apply KB article 317025. It states to create a static route using the 1st IP address of static scope from server. I get the error "The route addition failed: either the interface index is wrong or the GW does not lie on the same network as the interface. Here are my settings: Local server network 192.168.10.0 SM 255.255.255.0 VPN static pool 192.168.20.100 thru 149 SM 255.255.255.0. Command I tried to add: route add 192.168.10.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.20.100. If I use the actual IP address that the VPN gets assigned everything work correct. Problem is I have multiple machines connecting and I don't know the address they will get and if the route is not added before logging in I can't run a script from the server because it does not know how to get to the server. How can I fix this?

Have a look at www.smallbizserver.net for VPN-issues. How many nics in the
server?
If you have 2, make sure you've done the regedits in 292822.
