| Different VPN Question I couldn't think of a way to describe what I'm trying to do with VPN because its kind of different. What I'm trying to accomplish here is when I dial into a VPN, I want my external IP address to be the one that the company uses and not my home IP address. When you use Windows XP, your entire computer gets tunneled right to the other network and you loose connection with the local computers on your network and when you browse websites, you are using the companies IP address. so if anyone here is familiar with how windows XP handles VPN, that is exactly what I'm trying to do. Is there a way to do that on OSX Tiger?

| If you want to go the Windows way, you can do it in a virtual machine. Just run the VPN client in Parallels. I'm not aware, that the Mac client has the same feature. Can you tell us more obout which VPN software you are using? |

| If you're running Leopard, under your VPN network connection in the System Preferences under "Network", in the "Advanced" portion, there should be an option labeled "Send all network traffic over VPN connection." Ensure that this option is checked. In Tiger, this option would be under "Connect > Options", in the "Internet Connect" application.
