   Change the server side network.  I know you said you can't but this is   
   the solution to your problem.  If you don't like it, then keep   
   instructing your users how to change their routers default settings.   
      
   These days it's a bad idea to use 192.168.1.x or 192.168.0.x for   
   corporate networks for exactly this reason.  I would advocate you   
   actually change to the 10.x.x.x private address space.  Even in 10.x you   
   should avoid 10.0.0.x and 10.10.0.x since Windows servers will prompt   
   users with these addresses when setting up a new DHCP server by default.   
      
   NAT hacks for using VPN between networks with address collisions are   
   very ugly and usually require more difficult changes on the users end   
   than a simple subnet change.  It can also break many applications that   
   are not NAT friendly.  (Deliver IP's in packet data section)
