When I establish a connection to my ISP access to LAN resources becomes impossible.
As soon as I disconnect, I've access to LAN
Is it a problem with my configuration?
Is this problem related to system policies?
 
Well, to even begin to work this out, we would need more information: what is network setup, how do you connect (LAN and ISP), and things like that..

So please, tell us your network configuration, and your ISP connection details, perhaps we can help you further if we got something to work with.. ---

LAN
Lan protocol is TCP/IP
DHCP is used
Machine are member of a NT domain

ISP
Connection is made using dial-up with standard options

There is no problem is the local administrator is logged on the machine

There is a problem when a domain user try to connect to an ISP


 
Hi

Of course you won't be able to connect to the local network.
By default dialup networking defines the default gateway to the ISP and kills your network.

I'm not sure if there is any way to disable it unless your ISP has a proxy server that you can define for browsing.
 
If I recall correctly, there's an option to set the default gateway to the remote (RAS) network..

Otherwise, you could add the necesseary route info manually (just lookup route add)..

Although - a local admin works fine? how does that local admin authenticate to the network? If a domain user fails, and a local admin works, I'd look more into a permission thing?

Just to rule out some routing errors, could you post the output of ROUTE PRINT both before and during a RAS connection? probably the output of IPCONFIG /ALL (before and during - shouldn't change the LAN NIC info) would be nice as well?
