Hello,

I am trying to get hostname address resolution on my LAN and VPN with
one serious problem:
I have two "networks" eg. 10.1.1.0 and 10.2.2.0 which are representing
local address space for LAN (10.1.1.0/8) and VPN address space (10.2.2.0/8).

This isn't two networks, it's one network and you've got the VPN space
overlapping the LAN space. To oversimplify a little, Don't Do That.

Use a separate subnet for the VPN. Then traffic to the VPN will be
routed over the VPN interface as intended, but traffic to the LAN will
be routed over the LAN interface. This is what you want, but right now
the VPN and the LAN are the same network, so "routing to the LAN" is the
same as "routing to the VPN", and your network stack doesn't know what
to do with it.

To be clear, replacing /8 with /24 would do this:

10.1.1.0/8, as a "network", is really just 10.0.0.0/8. This is also true
of 10.2.2.0/8. The bits after the first 8 are irrelevant, since a /8 is
being used. Use /24 instead, in this case.

It would be good for Samuraiii to read up:

I'm sorry for mistake the subnet mask for both spaces IS 255.255.255.0.
so it is not overlapping at all.
I apologise for my mistake in notation.
still this is not (mainly) problem with routing but problem with assigning name to address.
If I had superfast internet connection I would not mind and just use vpn address space.
So basically i need to assign lan address to computer (laptop) which is in same location (LAN) as other machines. And vpn address on all other computers.

to illustrate:

hostname: foo
Location:1
address eth0: 10.1.1.3
address tap0: 10.2.2.3

hotname: bar
Location: 1
addresses are irrelevant
hosts entry for foo is 10.1.1.3 *(this is what I want to update if foo moves to location 2 to 10.2.2.3)*

hosname baz
Location: 2
addresses are irrelevant
Hosts entry for foo is 10.2.2.3 *(this is what I want to update if foo moves to location 2 to 10.1.1.3)*

Thank you or patience
