PPTP only patially working

RouterOS General
1

I have a RB532 running PPTP server to allow me to remotely access the network it is on. Under PPP Secrets, I have configured a user, password and service as PPTP. The local address I have set as the LAN address of the RB532 (not sure if this is correct), and the remote address I have set as a different address on the same network. When I use Windows XP to connect via the WAN address, the MT OS hands out the desired LAN address to my windows box. The trouble is I can only access the MT box on the network. Other machines on the MT LAN are not accessable. What am I missing?

You should route to that box, not bridge to it … currently your remote workstation thinks the subnet is local and isn’t sending it thru the pptp tunnel.

Try using something like 10.95.0.1 as the local ip, and 10.95.0.2 and the remote ip. Then on windows add a static route to the remote subnet with the next hop as 10.95.0.1.
