http://www.ISAserver.org ------------------------------------------------------- The first statement makes no sense at all..? "ping 192.168.1.2 " should return packets from 192.168.1.2; not " an IP addr that belongs to TuCows domain ". This happens no matter where the VPN client is located? Wanna do some deeper testing offline and report back with our findings? -----Original Message----- From: isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tom Rogers Sent: Tuesday, May 04, 2010 07:58 To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isalist] Re: Strange Issue while using VPN http://www.ISAserver.org ------------------------------------------------------- When I do a "ping 192.168.1.2" for my primary DC/DNS server I see returned not 192.168.1.2 but an IP addr that belongs to TuCows domain. When I do a "ping NT1" (server name - which should be 192.168.1.2) for my primary DC/DNS server I see returned not 192.168.1.2 but an IP addr that belongs to TuCows domain.
