Hi,
I am trying to configure PopTop on my OpenBSD Current system. Yes, I
know it's not secure, but given the situation, I do not have a choice.
OpenBSD 5.1-current (GENERIC.MP) #253: Thu Apr 26 01:45:24 MDT 2012
Everything has been installed from packages in the snapshot.
In the pptd.conf(5) man page, it mentions:
ROUTING CHECKLIST - PROXYARP
Allocate a section of your LAN addresses for use by clients.
In /etc/ppp/options.pptpd. set the proxyarp option. In
pptpd.conf do
not set localip option, but set remoteip to the allocated
address
range. Enable kernel forwarding of packets, (e.g. using
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward ).
Therefore, I just have "remoteip 192.168.123.200-210" in the config
file, and 200-210 is blocked (reserved) on my DHCP server and I have not
put in a "localip".
The directions that come with the poptop package
(/usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes/poptop-1.3.4p3) indicate:
In ppp.conf create a section pptp
pptp:
enable proxy
set dns IP.Of.DNS.Server1 IP.Of.DNS.Server2
set ifaddr _*Local.IP *_Remote.IP
set timeout 0
So... what am I missing here?
Or should I just be using "Routing" (per pptpd.conf(5)) and..
ROUTING CHECKLIST - FORWARDING
Allocate a subnet for the clients that is routable from your
LAN, but
is not part of your LAN.
If I do that, I could create a 192.168.124.0/24 network on my OpenBSD
server which I presume tun0 would belong to. Would the other end of the
tunnel (the Windows system) go into another subnet (eg: 192.168.125.0/24)?
Googling least to a plethora of Linux "HOWTO's", none of which really
explain anything...
Confused in Windows networking land :( Any assistance appreciated!
Thanks,
Steve Williams
