newbie routing question

[rcunningham8820]

I've got two networks each with a broadband connection and a linksys
befvp41 (vpn router).

Ive got a vpn tunnel connected and I can ping pc's across the
connection. My problem is I just added a phone system (really a pc
with some kind of linux os (I think)) and I can't ping that pc. I'm
thinking I need to setup a static route on a pc (side b) at the other
end but I don't know how.

Side a:
has phone system ip=192.168.2.201
vpn router side a 192.168.2.1 mask=255.255.255.0

Side b:
has pc I want to access phone system ip=192.168.16.102
vpn router side b 192.168.16.1 mask=255.255.255.0

route on pc side b is:

Network Destination Netmask Gateway Interface
Metric
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.16.1 192.168.16.102

Default Gateway: 192.168.16.1

Any help is appreciated!

if you Linksys router VPN uses subnet, you should be able to ping whole network. or you may want to use tracert command to find out where the traffic go.

This doesn't help me. I can ping other computers on the subnet
192.168.2.x from 192.168.16.x and I can ping 192.168.2.201 from any
computer in the subnet 192.168.2.x I'm sure I need to add a router
either in the router or on the computer i'm trying to ping from but I
don't understand routing. I need someone to help a newbie.

Please someone who is familuar with Linksys. I've tried to enter
several settings in the advanced routing tab but they don't work. I've
tried to enter a route on each pc with the route add command but no
success!

Thanks Everyone.
