Matthew,

thanks for the fast response. Unfortunately making the change you
suggest does not make a difference. Depending on what I set under the
policy tab I get two different results when trying to ping a host on the
remote network:

ralf at ralf-ubuntu:/etc$ ping 192.168.50.10
PING 192.168.50.10 (192.168.50.10) 56(84) bytes of data.
^C
--- 192.168.50.10 ping statistics ---
8 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 7006ms

Or

ralf at ralf-ubuntu:/etc$ ping 192.168.50.10
PING 192.168.50.10 (192.168.50.10) 56(84) bytes of data.

^C

, pipe 4

192.168.50.81 is the IP assigned to the tap0 interface.


Thanks for your help!
Ralf
