I would not think this is the case.  I often will use VPN from work on a
campus 10.25.xx.xx address to the vpn subnet of 10.0.xx.xx.  My
understanding is that it depends on the VPN client (that's what calculates
the routes, not the actual hardware your computer is plugged into).
Anything beyond your computer just sees the packets as all originating from
your REAL ip address... VPN stuff is just encrypted and all packets bound
for the concentrator you are connected to.  

I would be interested...  In windows when you use the Cisco VPN client
(assuming you do) does it use Ipsec/UDP or Ipsec/TCP ?  Wymount is pretty
restricted and the MTC even more.  I wonder if it's along the lines of a UDP
connection making it when a TCP connection cant.
