Under routing interfaces:
a demand dial vpn connection

Under Static Route:
Interface: name of the vpn connection
Destination: 10.10.5.0
Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: grayed out when I selected the vpn interface
Metric: 1
Use this route to initiate demand-dial connections: checked

It can ping the win2k server that acts as a router on my side. It can not
ping the win2k server that is the vpn server on the other side.

Let me try to clarify what we have:
1) a DSL connection to the internet. This one has a SOHO firewall device.
This is the default gateway for all PCs. IP 192.168.112.1
Has a route for 10.10.1.0 to gateway 192.168.112.253
2) a T1 connection to another company with a Cisco router. IP
192.168.112.253.
routes traffic for 10.10.0.0 to external network but has an exception route
for 10.10.5.0 to go through 192.168.112.6
3) a win2k server 192.168.112.6 configured as a router and to route all
traffic for 10.10.5.x through a VPN connection to a Win2k VPN server on the
other side of the planet
4) a bunch of PCs with IPs in the 192.168.112.50-192.168.112.252 range, mask
255.255.255.0, default gateway 192.168.112.1
