Wrong routingtable?!

Postby Schellevis » Oct 21 03 2:06 am

Hi,

A strange problem:

A test-pc has IP 192.168.10.101 subnetmask 255.255.255.0 it makes a VPN connection to network 192.168.0.x subnet 255.255.255.0 via ADSL. The local gateway (an ADSL router) has IP 192.168.10.1. So far everything is ok, I can ping a server (192.168.0.7) on the other end, I even can access the server via Windows Explorer. The routing table (ROUTE PRINT) looks ok, no references whatsoever to 192.168.0.x.

But .....

When I start Filemaker-client on the test-pc, I connect to the Filemaker-server 192.168.0.7, I see all the available databases, but after opening and after a while (say after 5 openened databases) Filemaker says "Network Error"! Trying to open the databases again fails, I can't even see them anymore.

I found out that someone (?) has added a wrong route-statement in the table (host 192.168.0.7 subnet 255.255.255.255 via router 192.168.10.1). I can get it working again by deleting (ROUTE DEL) the wrong line, disconnecting and then reconnect the VPN.

I tried to run the 'ROUTE DEL 192.168.0.7'-command in a loop, just as a test, and 3 out of 4 times it worked, very slow, but it works.

What is going on?

Thanx, Bas.
