Hi all, I have a VPN setup but it only works once in a while. It seems my firewall (shorewall 3.0.8) is blocking protocol 47.
Here is what I have: eth0: internet eth2: dmz - my pptp server My entry In the rules file: pptp/ACCEPT fw dmz:192.168.253.2 My pptp macro ############################################################################### #ACTION SOURCE DEST PROTO DEST SOURCE ORIGINAL RATE USER/ # PORT PORT(S) DEST LIMIT GROUP PARAM - - tcp 1723 PARAM - - 47 - #LAST LINE -- ADD YOUR ENTRIES BEFORE THIS ONE -- DO NOT REMOVE What my log reports: warn.log:Nov 30 09:44:32 fw01 Shorewall:dmz2all:REJECT:IN=eth2 OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.2.12 DST=81.233.229.117 LEN=65 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=63 ID=49617 DF PROTO=47 Am I being thick and missing something obvious or could this be a bug of some sort? If a client launches the PPTP connection via his linux/windows box, the first time usually fails but the next is just fine. Any help is greatly appreciated until I move to IPSec... unless there is a better VPN than IPSec that works with wintendo.
