I posted as a new post in my last reply. Sorry, I need to correct above. It's actually doing something different because I was looking at a working setup I had information I don't with the VPC setup. All I can say is that I see gateway's mac on both VPN and remote boxes for VM setup. For VPC setup I can see VPN trying to reach SQUID server (retransmitting) so it didn't get far enough to reach the gateway. For some reason traffic is not reaching SQUID server (I am guessing something is dropping the traffic). Thanks,
