Hi Stephen,
I tried your suggestion using the 'route add 192.168.31.0 mask 255.255.255.0
192.168.30.3' and carried out a test from a client on the 192.168.30.0
subnet. The result is the same and is what I expected.
I'm still convinced the issue is to do with the fact that the PPP adapters
created when the site-to-site VPN link is established aren't configured with
the default gateway.
Thanks for your post.
Sergio
