RE: [suse-security] SuSE firewall and VPN

Hi Rudi,

I try to set up my firewall to forward a PPTP-Client to my internal PPTP-Server. I use SuSEfirewall-3.0 with the following settings in firewall.rc.config:

FW_Route=yes FW_Masquerade=yes FW_Masq_Nets="internal_net" FW_Forward_IP="external_net,pptp-host,47" FW_Forward_Masq_TCP="external_net,pptp-host,1723"

and ipfwd for masq ip-protocol 47

In syslog I get an accept message on the external interface, but there is nothing else happening (pptp client says "no answer").

Any help is appreciated.

perhaps the following link will help http://www.wolfenet.com/~jhardin/ip_masq_vpn.html bye Uli
