Unable to ping site-to-site VPN systems. - 01/21/08 08:47 PM

I have a site-to-site VPN setup at my office. The site-to-site is IPCOP(192.168.1.0) --> SonicWall 330(192.168.0.0).

When I VPN to our RRAS from home, I am unable to ping any of the systems on the Sonicwall side(192.168.0.0). I can ping all systems on the IPCOP side (192.168.1.0). If I then remote desktop to a system on the IPCOP side, I can then ping any system including the SonicWall side.

Any ideas? I want to be able to just VPN to my office and have full access to all systems.

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Nevermind. I discovered that the home network that I'm on is sharing the 192.168.0.0 network address. The solution is to either change the home network address to something else (192.168.3.0) or modify the route table. Set the metric for your home network to 100. That way when you connect to VPN it will use that connection.
