[vpn-help] Problem with setup of Netgear FVS318G and shrew client

[Nathan Morrow]

I had an issue with cached dns and not seeing the files shares when I connect to my vpn.  I can ping the IP, but the dns was messed up.

If that is the case for you, run "ipconfig /flushdns" from the command line after connecting.

Rob,

I'm not sure. Are you running the latest version of firmware on the 
Netgear? Can you provide some log output?
