Thanks Dave, I'm not familiar with the Windows L2TP VPN client. Any ideas if it will connect to a Cisco VPN concentrator (3000 series)? Or perhaps a better question is whether or not it's a "generic" VPN client? FYI...what you laid out is EXACTLY what I do in Linux with KVPNC as a GUI (allows you to keep/replace default route) and then I have it set to add the 2 routes I need for the VPN once connected (using VPNC as the actual app doing the connecting). So just looking to do the same thing in Windows, but the Cisco VPN client has no "keep default route" option and every time I remove the critical route it adds, it just puts it back!! grrrrr (I know...it's doing what it's supposed to).
