Route based VPN & dial-up vpn -- routing problem

I have a route based VPN tunnel setup between two Netscreen 100s running ScreenOS 4. Computers on the remote site have two NICs, one with a public IP address connected directly to the internet and one with a private IP address on an isolated LAN. Other than the Netscreen device, this network has no routers and none of the computers have a default gateway specified for this network (since their default gateway is on the public network).

I also have a dial-up VPN configured, using Netscreen Remote to connect.

The problem I have is that I can only communicate with computers via the VPN if I add a static persistent route on each computer to the network I am connecting from. This isn't so bad for the site-to-site VPN. But this isn't feasable for Netscreen Remote clients, as they are subject to be connecting from any network.

Any suggestion on what I need to do?
