[vpn] directing traffic

if you are using an IPsec tunnel, you need to enable "Split tunneling" -
this will be done on the VPN concentrator. Unfortunatley (as far as I
know) if you're using PPTP, there's no recourse..

Subject: [vpn] directing traffic


I recently set up a small vpn connection between my office and home 
computer. Other than the slow connection, I am having an interesting
problem.

I have a W2K machine in my office running behind a Netgear router. Same 
setup at home. I make the connection to the home computer and all is
well. 
I created a network connection to the home machine and I have a regular 
connection to my ISP.

However, when I have the VPN connection open, all the traffic that used
to 
go out to the ISP is trying to go via the VPN (and therefore, fails).

How can I direct traffic that is meant to go out, to not go via the VPN 
channel?


Thanks
Nate
