   I have set up a VPN using a Netgear FVM318 and the Netgear Prosafe VPN   
   client. When I use a dial up connection on the client I can access the   
   network via the VPN. In order to access anything on the network via computer   
   name or mapped drive I had to add an entry to the host file on the client   
   machine (matching an IP  to a computer name). Not the ideal way to do it but   
   it works.   
      
   My  real problem seems to be when the client is behind a NAT router. I can   
   establish a VPN connection; hower, I can not ping or access anything on the   
   network. I looked in the client logs and have this:

   I am a bit confused by the last two lines regarding the 'failed validation'.   
   They seem to come at random, the only IP I tried to ping before that message   
   was 192.168.0.1 (the router). Sometimes I will get a 'failed validation'   
   regarding another computer on my network; but again, it seems to be at   
   random. The subnet that the client is on is 192.168.1.0 and the VPN is on   
   192.168.0.0.   
      
   Any ideas are appreciated, thanks.
