Cannot access remote network via SSTP
Environment Windows Server running RRAS configured for SSTP w/ correct static routes to non-connected networks (i.e. a network that is not on the same subnet as my SSTP server's backend network adapter). Issue From a Windows Vista SP1 client, I am not able to access non-connected networks (ping, http, etc.). THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE FROM A WINDOWS 7 CLIENT. A ping request for a remote subnet IP on the internal network appears to be sent out my client network adapter's default gateway (i.e. to the internet). Enabling "use default gw on remote network" "fixes" the issue, but this is highly undesirable due to the fact that this will cause all internet bound traffic to traverse the vpn network and cause congestion. Any thoughts? Again, this is working for all Windows 7 clients w/o enabling the "use default gw..." setting. Is this a Vista bug? Thanks in advance!

Here are the route prints after connecting to the SSTP VPN. For some reason, it appears that Windows 7 clients create a route to the entire 10.0.0.0/8 subnet while Vista clients create one just for the RRAS server's direct connected subnet (10.1.0.0/16). Odd.
