VPN and Remote Desktop

July 10, 2004 8:02 AM

Thanks for your help with this question. Now, I have another one dealing with VPN's. I need to remote desktop into my work computer and when I don't use the default internet gateway for my vpn, I can't connect to the remote desktop. However, I was told that if I setup a static route to a certain IP through the vpn adaptor each time after I connect to the VPN, it should work. How do I do that? I'm on windows XP, home edition.
