Hello David,
Thank you for your email.
From the ipconfig result on remote VPN client and SBS, I get that the SBS
external NIC IP is in the same subnet with the remote client. They are all
in the 192.168.1.0/24. This setting is incorrect. You need to make them
working in different IP schemes. You can change one of them to different
subnet, like 192.168.3.0/24.
For example, both LAN's are using 192.168.1.0 as the internal subnet
address. The computer sends the IP packages according to the path defined
in the routing table. If the local and the remote network are using the
same IP subnet, the client computer would not send the packages through the
VPN interface. Instead, the traffic will go through the local NIC to the
local internal network. If that's the case, you will need to change either
your local network IP schema or the branch office side IP schema.
After you change the IP subnet and then perform the steps in my previous
reply to reconfigure the VPN on SBS. Then, test the issue.
If we cannot resolve the issue after we perform the above steps, please
help me collect some information for further investigation:
1. Send me the ipconfig /all and router print results to me again.
2. Please try to establish the VPN connection from the internal clients.
Does it success?
I hope these steps will give you some help.
Thanks and have a nice day!
Best regards,

Hello Terrence,
Thanks for you suggestion!
I will change the subnet, i will make new tests as soon as possible.
But there is something that i don't understand...
If like you told me, because client subnet is the same than external
nic subnet of our server, client's packets cannot be sent through the
tunnel,
so why as you can see in my first post, the server packets capture
shows client vpn connection attemps packets ?
Regards,
David
