Hi Christoph,

The fact that it works using generic WinXP and Draytek's client further
suggests as you say that the problem is with the Shrew client config.
Without adding 192.168.215.0/255.255.255.0 to the policy I don't think
Shrew will know that traffic for 192.168.215.0 should be sent through
the tunnel.

If that does not work, can you provide us with a trace from the Shrew
client? On Windows Vista or Windows 7, remember to right-click on the
Trace Utility and select "run as Administrator" in order for it to
work. See this link for instructions:

There is also a release candidate for version 2.1.6 of the Shrew client
that has several fixes, you may also want to try that.
