This just happened to me and it turned that there were many choices of 
architecture and I had chosen (or not noticed that I had chosen) a different 
flavor of x86.  That was exactly my symptom.  Recheck your menuconfig carefully.
BTW: How do I tell Lilo to let me choose e.g. by a boot menu which kernelimage 
to boot from?
Here is the part of my /etc/lilo.conf that does that:
# Boot up Linux by default.
#
default=Linux-2.4.18
image=/vmlinuz
   label=Linux-2.4.18
   read-only
#   restricted
#   alias=1
image=/vmlinuz-old
   label=LinuxOld
   read-only

Hi. What you need is:

http://www.freeswan.org/

or just apt-get

freeswan - IPSEC utilities for FreeWan
kernel-patch-freeswan - IPSEC kernel support for FreeSwan

Quite simple setup.. It's all there, manuals and stuff.

Works for both network<->client and network<->network setups.

I have used it for over 2 years w/ no problems. Stable as a rock.

Regarding pptp.

You want to connect your XP to a linux firewall, to get inside?

pptpd (PoPToP) .. work well.


Regards,
Christofer Algotsson

The last time I did a IPSEC setup I used FreeS/WAN and got it up and
running in some hours.

As far as I remember the setup process was quite straightforward
although you have to patch and recompile your kernel (which isn't a
problem if you know what you're doing).

Just take a look at the documentation at
http://www.freeswan.org/freeswan_trees/freeswan-1.95/doc/index.html
which is quite good.

If you still have problems, just drop me a line via PM and i'll try to
help you as good as I can.

Ive succeded in building a pptp tunnel but watch it cause its slow and
sucky.

Ive also setup ipsec but was not trivial...i did it through the fresswan
tarball, not debian.

Ive seen ppl do it throough vtun or ssh+ppp (which is probably best
documented although not very flexible).

This can be done with the pptp daemon on your linux side...no prob, just
install it and set it up.

Its your choice to use pptp, or rather a choice made for u by
microsoft...it SUCKS.

Wellexplain yourself...do u want a pptp connection to your gateway
or do u want to firewall pptp connections in and out your network?

IPSEC and PPTP

2002-07-19 Thread Grischa Schuering
Hello folks,

I am sure there is somebody who can help me on this matter. It is very
important to me and I will be very grateful if somebody tells me how to
solve it:

I am using debian woody.
What is the best and easiest way to get a IPSEC tunnel (encrypted e.g.
3DES) running between two seperate networks ??
I was reading something about freeswan? Also a couple months ago, I saw
a package "PIPSECD" which no longer exists?

So what is the easiest an best way to get it running ?

The other thing is. I would also like to connect to my linux gateway via
a Micorsoft XP PPTP Connexion.
What packages do I have to installed. I think there used to be a MPPE
patch. But I don't see it anymore for the actual woody release...


Greetings,

grischa
