Wha..? ;) Let me Google that and get back to you...
With a VPN what you Don't want is for the user's computer to use
the VPN to access the remote LAN for the gateway because all his
internet traffic would then travel over the VPN (twice!).

Ah. That makes sense. Yes, I believe that was the way things were
previously set up at work. I'm going to use WireShark to watch what
goes on over the wire and see what I can find. In the meantime,
"Comparing, Designing, and Deploying VPNs " by Cisco Press might be a
good place to learn from. (I know, I said no Cisco Press stuff. I
changed my mind. :) )

just double check the IP of your 'gateway' and make sure
it is different from the one that VPN's LAN uses.

> ipconfig /all
