I'm trying to route all traffic from a loopback interface (lo:0) to my
vpn interface (ppp0)

this is my zones file:

#ZONE   TYPE     OPTIONS                 IN                      OUT
#                                        OPTIONS                 OPTIONS
fw      firewall
net     ipv4
loc:net ipv4
vpn     ipv4
lob     ipv4

this is my interfaces file:
#ZONE   INTERFACE       BROADCAST       OPTIONS
net     eth0            255.255.255.0   dchp,routeback
vpn     ppp0            255.255.255.0   dhcp,routeback
lob     lo:0

I have the vpn set up in my tunnels file:
# TYPE                  ZONE    GATEWAY         GATEWAY
#                                               ZONE
pptpclient              net     0.0.0.0/0       vpn


This is the ifconfig for lo:0
lo:0      Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:172.27.72.64  Mask:255.255.255.255
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1

Problem 1:

This configuration doesn't work. I get the following error on startup:
ERROR: Invalid Interface Name: lo:0

Problem 2:
Assuming someone can help me with lo:0, I'd like to redirect all
traffic from lo:0 (zone lob) to ppp0 (zone vpn), and I'd like the
traffic to route back.
I know I can do something similar using providers, but I've had a lot
of trouble with them, I'd rather just bind programs to lo:0's IP
(172.27.72.64), and I don't want them to not work at all if the VPN's
down.

Thanks for any help you can provide,

Joe Terranova
