VPN server IP addresses

G

Guest

My VPN server has a private IP address on the LAN of 192.168.1.2
The actual VPN host adapter has IP address 192.168.1.11 (set to "Specify IP
addresses" 192.168.1.11-20)

Before installing SP2 (on the server and client), I was able to access the
host at 192.168.1.2 through the VPN connection, but I can now ONLY access it
at 192.168.1.11

This is a problem because sometimes my client (laptop) connects to the LAN
locally and can only access 192.168.1.2, and I can only have one lmhosts
entry for my server.

Does anyone know of a way to restore VPN host routing to itself (I suspect
it's some sort of loopback setting) to pre-SP2 behavior?

XP SP2 breaks loopbacks. Grab the fixed tcpip.sys stack...
