I eventually sorted out connecting Cisco VPN Client v3.6.1 (on Win98) to my
company VPN server via Dachstein. (The client is configured to use UDP, not
TCP).
I tried connecting with a direct connection to my cable modem, and realised
I was using the wrong ***�*"^+$** username - once I corrected this, things
moved a lot more swiftly! I got it running through Dachstein, gradually
tightening up the filter rules to the minimum required addresses/ports. I'm
not able to run an X-server to the machine in my office, but that may be a
'feature' of the company set-up. I can telnet into company machines, and get
the Windows shared drives from the NT servers.
For the record, and for future reference, what was ultimately required was
as follows:
- Load ip_masq_ipsec module
- Add the following to /etc/network.conf:
EXTERN_UDP_PORT0="218.33.115.21/0 500 192.168.0.0/0"
and
EXTERN_PROTO0="50 218.33.115.21/0 192.168.0.0/0"
EXTERN_PROTO1="47 218.33.115.21/0 192.168.0.0/0"
where 218.22.115.21 is the VPN server address, and 192.168.x.x the addresses
on my internal nework interface(s).
Many thanks to all those who offered advice/encouragement, and happy
holidays to all!
