It does now, after considerable experimenting with IP subnet's and so on. If you want more info, let me know. I will eventually produce some sort of howto for Linux-Win32 CIPE connection. The linux end just worked (as usual). It was the Win end that really played havoc.

Basically:
- when setting up, make sure both ends of the cipe conneciton are on the same ip subnet or windows won't be able to route between them
- if you have a lan behind the redhat server(s) that needs to be accessible from the remote clients, make sure you choose a different subnet for the cipe connection ends than either the lan behind the redhat server or the client. This way you can add a route by hand on the win clients that tells it how to get to the lan subnet. This last bit is the issue talked about as "split tunnel". It might be better to port forward on the lan behind server.

Does the XP CIPE client work okay?

I was looking at this the other day as I need to setup some VPNs between
Windows 9x/2000/XP and Linux clients and RedHat servers.
