If your remote client is on a network with the same subnet as the local network you will typically not have vpn access. Shrewsoft could perhaps handle this differently, but in general what will end up happening is trying to contact a host on the remote side will cause your computer to send out arp broadcasts (it will think it's local) which won't go over vpn thus no response will come back and your connection will die at layer 2.
Try changing the subnet on one of the sides and see if you have IP connectivity.

I'm having trouble connecting to a remote network using the Shrew Soft VPN Client for Windows. I am trying to connect directly to the Cisco gateway. I have a feeling my immediate problem is with my Phase 2 connection. The ultimate goal is to access a share on a computer on the remote network (i.e. map a letter to the share). Right now I get to the "tunnel enabled" but cannot access anything on the remote network. Looking at the log file it appears that something isn't right but I have no idea what.
