Hello,

I am having trouble connecting to my Microsoft Windows 2003 VPN server from
my Vista Client. I have the connection configured to use the default gateway
on the remote network. However the default route for the (VPN PPP) adapter
is never set. The adapter is assigned a IP address and a Network Mask but no
default route. Under Windows XP a default route is assinged to the adapter
so IP traffic can flow.

Can anyone explain to me how to fix this problem. Not being able to use VPN
networks is a real problem.

This is Windows Visa Ultimate. Connecting to a Windows 2003 VPN server.

Thanks

Bill
 
Do you mean he DG is 0.0.0.0? This is by design. To find out where the traffic go use route command. This link may help,
