I have a PPTP VPN connection defined in NM applet 0.7.0 with a Address added to the IPv4 Settings page as Address=10.255.0.0 Prefix=16 Gateway=0.0.0.0. After the establishing the PPTP connection successfully, I have the following in my route table:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.255 UGH 0 0 0 eth1 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 10.255.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 ppp0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 At this point, I couldn't establish any connectivity to anything in 10.255.x.x. On a hunch I ran the following route command manually. After running it I was able to then connect to 10.255.x.x addresses. route add -net 10.255.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 dev ppp0 Oddly, after adding the net route manually, my route table had two of the following entries which appear to be exactly the same, but obviously they aren't: 10.255.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 ppp0 10.255.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 ppp0 My question is, what is NM adding and why is it different than running the route add -net command manually? I don't know enough to dig deeper into the routes being added to figure out what is different. Perhaps someone with more knowledge could tell me what to look at. _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
