there are two layers , first the lan then vpn verify your lan is healthy by running :" /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 restart " then run ifconfig and check the eth0 entry
to establish vpn i don't use pptp-command , i use pppd create file /etc/ppp/peers/tech-vpn , then run pppd call tech-vpn this is an alternative for providing pppd parameters in command line in tech-vpn put : user USER_IN_PAP_FILE pty "pptp TECH_VPN_SERVER --nolaunchpppd" usepeerdns file /etc/ppp/options edit /etc/ppp/pap_secrets and write USER_NAME TECH_VPN_SERVER PASSWORD after running "pppd call tech_vpn" use route command to replace your lan gateway with vpn remote gateway your lan gateway can be found using route before running pppd or in /etc/dhcpc/dhcp**info your vpn remote ip can be found using "ifconfig ppp0 " ouput the route commands are : route add -host TECH_VPN_SERVER gw DHCP_GATEWAY route add default gw REMOTE_VPN_IP route del default gw DHCP_GATEWAY i am not sure the first route command is needed On Jan 4, 2008 12:00 PM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Send Haifux mailing list submissions to > haifux@haifux.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://hamakor.org.il/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haifux > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Haifux digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
