Howdy Bill and thanks for the reply.
I am able to make the connection and clicking on the icon in the system tray
confirms this. However, after connecting I am unable to ping anything on the
network of the VPN server - not even the VPN server itself (by name or ip
address). Here is the IP address assignment provided through DHCP:

One thing I must admit that I don't understand is why the default gateway is
the same as the host ip address of the vpn client. Shouldn't this be set to
the default gateway address of the router on the network to which I am
connecting via VPN? Now, as I've stated before, if I physically connect to
the network locally (the very same one to which I'm trying to VPN) I'm able
to ping everything, and use all available services on the network. It is
only when I VPN that I can't ping or use any of the services on the network.
Also, when I check the leases on the DHCP server I don't see anything for
the VPN client when it is connected. How is it getting an IP address and
from where? Is it obtaining the address from RRAS or from the DHCP service?
Again, thanks for you reply,
