Parallels Desktop breaks VPN

Hey guys,

It seems Parallels Desktop breaks VPN in Leopard, at least on my box.
When the en2 and en3 Parallels interfaces are up I can connect to my VPN, authenticate and everything, only it just doesn't work. I can't ping a machine inside the VPN, nothing, as if I've hit a brick wall.
When I first run the ifdown commands for the Parallels interfaces and then connect to VPN everything works like a charm.
The VPN and Parallels NAT interfaces are not in the same IP range, I configure Parallels to use 192.168.3.x whereas the VPN range is 10.10.11.x just to rule that out.

Anyone got a clue what is going on?
 
Hello Daenney,

Please open Terminal and run the following command:

sudo killall –hup pvsnatd

Set Bridged Ethernet in your VM Configuration.

Best regards,
Xenos
