How would a default gateway stop a client PC from locating other PCs on its local LAN collision domain?
I think the interface priority that Tom mentioned is a far more likely culprit.

Actually, split tunneling has nothing to do with this issue. The problem is related to interface priority.

Jim, your VPN client should have an option to prevent "split tunneling". That's what you're looking for. There should be a central way to enforce that prohibition.

I thought I had read of a way of setting up VPN on a client so, when you made a VPN connection, it basically ignored the local connection. For example, when you make a VPN connection you get an IP address from the VPN connection and you have an IP address from your Local Area connection. I'd like to make it so all network traffic goes through the VPN IP and the other address is ignored - as if that connection does not exist. I know the Local Area IP has to exist to run the VPN but I want all traffic to go down the VPN pipe and not "escape" before it gets into the pipe. I can't seem to find that option now. Does it exist? How do you enable it? My clients will be XP and Vista. The issue is, if the client goes to "Network Neighborhood" and browses for computers on the network, it lists computers on the client side of the VPN instead of the server side. This makes me think that some network traffic isn't being directed down the VPN pipe. I'm definitely making a VPN connection though because I can access some stuff that I wouldn't be able to access without the VPN. Thanks for your help.
