You need to open port 50 & 500; the relevent code in my firewall is: at the top of the input chains /sbin/ipchains -A input -j ACCEPT -i $EXTIF -p udp -s $VPNHOST1 500 -d $EXTIP /sbin/ipchains -A input -j ACCEPT -i $EXTIF -p 50 -s $VPNHOST1 -d $EXTIP at the top of the output chains /sbin/ipchains -A output -j ACCEPT -i $EXTIF -p udp -s $EXTIP 500 -d $VPNHOST1 /sbin/ipchains -A output -j ACCEPT -i $EXTIF -p 50 -s $EXTIP -d $VPNHOST1 where: EXTIF is eth0 or the one on the internet EXTIP is the external ip assisgned by your ISP VPNHOST1 is the ip address of the remote Nortel host Also must have the VPN masq patch in the kernel Works fine for me under 3.0.?
