Re: Internet Access Via Windows 2000 VPN



You can't really have remote clients connecting through one router and
accessing the Internet through another. Internet access and VPN server
operation both need a default route out to the Internet, and you can only
have one active default route on the server.

To put it another way, remotes can only route out to the Internet
through the same gateway that they use for VPN connection. Proxy servers
work because they don't depend on default routing. The client contacts the
proxy server directly using its IP address.
