I'm having problems connecting to my desktop (running actually aptosid, which is virtually simply Debian Sid with a different kernel and a few extra tools and customizations).
Here is the situation: my desktop is connected to a VPN service. (The router to which the desktop is connected is not, only the desktop. So, the VPN client runs on the desktop and the other computers on the network connect to the Internet directly.) When I first started using the VPN service, I could not SSH to my desktop from outside the network anymore. After a lot of googling, I found out a solution (https://forums.openvpn.net/topic7163-15.htm): I've added the following script to /etc/network/if-up.d: -------------- !/bin/bash ip rule add from 192.168.29.120 table 10 ip route add default via 192.168.29.1 table 10 ---------------- where 192.168.29.120 is the IP of the desktop and 192.168.29.1 is the IP of the router. That worked perfectly and until recently. (I'm sorry I cannot be more precise about when, but I'd say within the last 30 days or so it stopped working.) I could connect to the desktop from anywhere. But recently, when I run the script above (as I've been doing for a while), I can still connect from *outside* my network, but *not* from inside (i.e., other computers connected to the same router). From within the network, nothing works (SSH, Samba, minidlna...). As soon as remove the rules (with "ip rule/route del ..."), I can connect again from inside (but, of course, not from outside anymore). I'd appreciate any comments or suggestions. (The desktop is up to date with Sid repositories, by the way.) Thanks, Luis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
