Exactly how did you create the vpn connection - you need to say step
by step exactly what you did to get the connection going.

The creation of the routes is critical and if you get it wrong then
the vpn won't work as expected. You say it is working - but what do
you mean? You said what did not work but you did not say what did
work. Compare your routing table with the one I posted recently to the
group - I think that your routes are not set up right.
