Ok - here's the situation. I'm looking doing some work from home, so I want to VPN my home network with my lab network at work. Here's the setup:
Both networks are basically the same in setup. They look like: linux workstations <--> linux masqing box <--> internet On the home network, I use an internal class C network: 192.168.2.0/24 and at work we use 192.168.1.0/24. My ipsec.conf on each side looks like the following: config setup interfaces="ipsec0=eth1" klipsdebug=none plutodebug=none plutoload=%search plutostart=%search uniqueids=yes conn %default keyingtries=0 disablearrivalcheck=yes authby=rsasig conn panam-cole left = 63.127.199.26 leftsubnet = 192.168.2.0/24 leftnexthop = 63.127.199.25 leftrsasigkey = 0sAQNkta3 [snipped for brevity] right = 209.187.117.100 rightsubnet = 192.168.1.0/24 rightnexthop = 209.187.117.65 rightrsasigkey=0sAQPBb4 [snipped for brevity] auto = start One thing I should mention is that the kernel patches I'm using are for freeswan 1.96 and freeswan itself is 1.99. Before anybody jumps on me TOO much about that, I'll say this. It was working. 8) Both machines that are VPNs are also NATing for their internal networks. I'm making sure that it is not NATing for the private networks by adding a -d ! 192.168.0.0/16 into the nat rule. I'm using kernel 2.4.18 with iptables. Like I said before, it's rather peculiar because it *was* working. I had to finish assembling the box here at Pan Am so I took it down. When it came back up, the logs claim that the ipsec connection is active, and if I turn on klipsdebug to all I can see that "something is happening", but my pings and ssh's don't make it through. Any thoughts on what could be wrong? Or even what to do as a next diagnostic step? -- "... one of the main causes of the fall of the Roman Empire was that, lacking zero, they had no way to indicate successful termination of their C programs." -- Robert Firth Cole Tuininga Lead Developer Code Energy, Inc [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Key ID: 0x43E5755D _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
