ras client not receiving ras server route table after connect

D

draftermath

this is my situation, i have a ras server sittign in my dmz with a
10.10.50.50 address and a gateway of 10.10.50.1. my main network has
an address scheme of 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0. when clients connect
they are given an ip from the range 10.10.50.224-254.

now from the ras server i can ping 192.168.1.1 because in its routing
table it has an entry 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0 gw 10.10.50.1. But when
a client connects it does not have that in its routing table. i can
ping anythign in the 10.10.50.0/24 subnet but not anything in the
192.168.0.0/24 subnet because it has not entry in its routing table
for it.

this particular time i am trying it gets an address of 10.10.50.227 w
a subnet of 255.255.255.255 when connected. i thought how RAS works
is that it uses the ras box as its virtual gateway. any help would be
great or if you need some more info please tell me

I think the only routing table update received from the server is for
the default gateway if that option is enabled (it is by default). You
might try initiating the VPN with a script that uses rasdial to connect
and then adds the required route to the other network. Assuming your
setup is something like this:


Work LAN
|
192.168.0.1
ROUTER
10.10.50.2
|
RAS SERVER
|
10.10.50.1
Internet Router
|
10.10.50.225
Remote Client
rasdial <connectionname> <username> <password | *>
route add 192.168.0.0 mask 255.255.255.0 10.10.50.2

IF the script does not wait for rasdial to connect before updating the
route, you may need to put a pause/wait between the lines of the script.
