VPN split tunneling with VVEngine?

[KnightRider]

Hi,

is it possible to use VPN split tunneling with VVEngine 2.1.2106?

I ask because i didn't get it to work. VVEngine always says that the profile isn't enabled, but it is The source isn't found.
I'm using UNC path like this, not mapped drive letters:
\\?\UNC\Fileserver\Daten\Buchhaltung\Sicherungen

With disabled split tunneling it works perfectly but i don't want that the whole traffic goes through the tunnel - it slows down the computer badly.

Thanks!
Kind regards

Hi, VVEngine and ViceVersa are completely transparent to the underlying network protocol (SMB, VPN, etc). They rely on the Windows Network and shares. It seems from the description of the issue that when you split the VPN, the traffic is going over to the wrong "side" and the folder is no longer found? How did you decide which network traffic is going to which side? Maybe there's the issue. thanks

Hi!

I have now setup a VPN tunnel with IPSec (german Fritzbox 7490).

I have now the problem that VVEngine cannot access the specified source path, ViceVersa can.

Here are the paths:
Source: \\192.168.0.100\Buchhalter-Sicherungen (This IP is the remote Server's local one)
Target: \\?\F:\Fileserver-Daten Buchhaltung-Sicherungen\ (local computer)

I've tried it with different paths:
- Mapped: \\?\Z:\
- Mapped without long paths: Z:\
- With UNC and long pathnames: \\?\UNC\192.168.0.100\Buchhalter-Sicherungen\
- Without long paths: \\192.168.0.100\Buchhalter-Sicherungen

I tested every possibility and not one worked!

All these paths works perfectly with ViceVersa! It must have to do with VVEngine.

Here is the profile:

Folders
- Source: "\\192.168.0.100\Buchhalter-Sicherungen\"
- Target: "\\?\F:\Fileserver-Daten Buchhaltung-Sicherungen\"
- Include Subfolders: No
- Exclude system files
- Exclude files created or modified more than 14 day(s) ago
Comparison
- Comparison Type: Size and Timestamp
- Ignore 2 seconds difference
- Ignore Timestamp
- Ignore Size
Execution
- Method: Replication (Update Target)
- No overwrite / read-only / error confirmations
- Log File: "F:\ViceVersa-Logfiles\buchhalter-sicherungen.log"
- No archive for deleted/replaced source files
- No archive for deleted/replaced target files
- Copy files even if timestamp changes after initial comparison
- Try to copy files that are in use by other applications
- Copy file/folder permissions
- Retain folder created and modified timestamps when copying
- Copy files even if they have timestamp errors
- Preserve last accessed timestamp of files being copied

In VVEngine i have set up the following:
- Run Immediately As Soon As Source and Target are Accessible
- Monitor Source and Run When File Changes Are Detected

Here is a logfile extract from a profile run:

Hi, ViceVersa runs as a standard admin (e.g. not elevated), while VVEngine runs as elevated admin.

Did you setup VVEngine to run as a service or normal start-up program?

If you right-click on ViceVersa and select "Run As Administrator" are you then able to access the source?

thanks
