Package: l2tpns
Version: 2.1.21-1
Severity: important

l2tpns does not appear to route packets from/to ranges not within that
which is allocated to the tunnels themselves. 

Consider for example

[E:192.168.0.0/24]--[LAC:10.0.0.2]---[LNS:10.0.0.1]--[E:192.168.1.0/24]

It seems l2tpns will only route traffic over the tun interface if it is natted
(the source address is either the tunnel or the LNS IP) making it
fairly useless for most uses of L2TP. 

l2tp does not provide any useful debugging from my side, only that when
I do something like 'traceroute -s 192.168.0.1 10.0.0.1' the packets hit
the tun0 interface from tcpdump, but tcpdump on the other end does not
see anything. 

l2tpd claims to do gratuitous arp, but I don't see any such thing
happening and the documentation fails to explain how it treats routing
information.
