    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,
