Hi all,

I have an XP VPN connection going from my home computer to an ITServe
Router at work. My home computer has a default gateway of 192.168.0.1
because of a dlink router that I have. My server at the office also
has an ip of 192.168.0.1. After I create my VPN connection to my
office router, when I try to open my office Outlook Web Access on the
office server 192.168.0.1/exchange I ended up getting my local router
instead.. How do I get around this? Am I correct in thinking that if I
can access my Outlook Web Access at the office by typing
serverip/exchange, then I should be able to VPN into the router and
enter the same URL into IE? What am I missing?

Thanks!
 
You should probably look at having different subnet addressing for the local
net if possible.
 
Thanks. I changed the network scheme at home and I'm getting closer.
What would one do if they couldn't change the network scheme?
