I am slowly working toward a vpn between the office and home. I now have to change my lan at work so as not to conflict w/ the lan at home.

at work, i reconfigured my eth1 interface:

eth1         192.168.2.1 255.255.254.0
eth1:0       192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0

the windblows machine i have connected to eth1 is 192.168.1.100 255.
255.255.0 this configuration will conflict w/ the lan at home. when i reconfigure the windblows machine to 192.168.2.100 255.255.254.
0, it arps but i cannot ping 192.168.2.1


i don't think the ip address is outside of the range of the netmask but maybe i am incorrect?

suggestions?



After looking into this further, I am still perplexed. Here is the topology I started w/:


my windows workstation
192.168.1.100/24 ------| debian gw corporate gw
|--192.168.1.1/24 -- 10.20.4.40/23
eth1 eth0
isp
24.45.154.0/24 -----| my debian gw my home lan
|-- 192.168.1.1/24 ---|---192.168.1.0/24
eth0 eth1 So, to get any VPN working (openVPN in my case), I have to change the addressing scheme on my windows workstation at work and the GW at work. Easy enough, right? Well ... I thought I could change the addresses to 192.168.2.100/24 and 192.168.2.1/24 respectively. When I do this, the workstation and GW at work do not communicate between each other. I can see arp requests and replys between the two work 192.168.1.0/24 machines, but I cannot ping nor get to the corporate gw from the workstation. I should know by now what I am doing wrong but it is not obvious to me.


Suggestions?
