I found the gateway IP address sometimes disappear from windows network

I m using openvpn beta 14 with winxp as client. The connection protocol is
UDP with tap.
The "push" config in the server is as follow:
push "ping 10"
push "ping-restart 30"
#push "persist-tun"
push "persist-key"
push "redirect-gateway"
push "route-gateway 172.16.0.1"
#push "route delete 192.168.9.0 255.255.255.0"
push "route 192.168.9.0 255.255.255.0"
push "dhcp-option DNS 192.168.9.254"
push "dhcp-option WINS 192.168.9.254"
push "ip-win32 dynamic"
push "dhcp-option NBT 8"
push "dhcp-option DOMAIN mydomain.com"
What gateway address? The original one, or the one pushed by OpenVPN?
With your configuration the original default gateway should be replaced
with the one set by OpenVPN.
I think you can run into problems when Windows DHCP client refreshes the
IP address though. This could cause the old default gateway to be
restored.
I'm using the "def1" parameter of --redirect-gateway to avoid that kind of
problems...
