Yessss...  That did it.  Problem solved, thank you.
I have never used VNIC before ... it took very little googling to figure out 
what you were talking about, figure out how to use it, and make it work.  
Again, thank you.   :-)


> 2) Can you run the VPN client on the client computer so that it "has"

Long story short, thanks for the idea, but due to technical problems, it would 
be a huge hassle, and not available in the near future.  In fact, I already 
have the VPN client, and I already use it.  But I can only access the LAN 
that's directly attached to the VPN server.  If I need to hop across another 
router to reach another subnet, that requires the "hairpinning" feature which 
we don't currently have.  It would be a hassle to make that work.

I am totally satisfied with the present solution however.  :-)  The vnic was 
the magic I was looking for.
