You should probably set DTK to destination: 192.168.0.0 netmask
255.255.255.0 device: eth0
I don't know why its tap0. tap0 is mostly used for demand dial. Demand
dial is probably using the 192.168.0.* address space to detect for the
presence of outgoing traffic. This is clashing with your internal IP
address space.
You have two options. One, move your intenal machines to another private
address block, like 192.168.1.* or 10.0.0.*.
Two, (the easiest) go...
dpkg-reconfigure --priority=low --frontend=dialog diald
Read the first page, select a different ip block and enter something
you're never going to use (like 192.168.76.1 and 192.168.76.2)
then restart diald (/etc/init.d/diald restart), then bring your
interface backup (ifdown -a; ifup -a)
Let us know how you go
