Can they rule out either OpenVPN or the Konica Minolta thing?
- is it possible to have the application connect directly to the MySQL db (for testing/debugging)? - is it possible to set up the connection to the MySQL db via SSH port forwarding? - does it happen *only* with the KM driver? - have they tested this for a Windows client user without privileges to add/remove printers (i.e. non Administrator, I'd guess) OpenVPN nor printer drivers remove printer connections "by accident". As for the strange subnet: I've seen many companies that abuse public IP space for their own internal networks. Provided that you get your routing+natting right, this does not necessarily have to ben an issue. I've seen nowhere that it's KM that uses this subnet, it's the client's *IT department* that uses it.
