   Hi,   
   the 169 address is a windows generated one when it can't get an address   
   allocated. Have you setup up a range of lan addresses on the server for   
   the remote clients to use ?   
   If there is only a single subnet at the remote site and the client is   
   given an address from this when they connect then there's no need to use   
   the route add command.   
   The syntax for the command is route add 192.168.22.xx netmask   
   255.255.255.0 y.y.y.y metric 1 where y.y.y.y is the remotely learned   
   address.
