Lonnie, Boyd: Ah, serendipity. :) One email, two answers...
To get a PPTP-based VPN client working from behind a LEAF/LRP disk, you need to do four things (none of which is to search the email archives, though that works too ;): 1. Be sure to be using a "VPN enabled kernel". Dachstein has this by default. Earlier stuff, including 2.9.8, doesn't. See Charles' page for the kernels. If you install a new one, *always* install with it the associated modules. 2. Load the PPTP masq module: uncomment its line in /etc/modules, backup, reboot. 3. Goof the firewall rules to allow protocol 47 and port 1723 in. 4. Use the "ipfwd" utility (ships by default) to forward the GRE (protocol 47) packets across the firewall. As you'd expect, steps 3 & 4 are done for you automagically using the echoWall package. Hope this helps! -Scott On Sun, 3 Mar 2002, Lonnie Cumberland wrote: > Hello, > > Could you please tell me how to prot forward this protocal 47 on my > Eigerstein LRP box? > > I know how to forward regular ports coming in to a server behind the > firewall, but I do not know about htis protocal 47 (gre) > > Thanks, > Lonnie _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
