Hello, Please see the following picture: http://www.wilson-kwok.com/pptp.jpg I used one to one NAT from 210.0.0.1 to 192.168.0.2 for web server, and then use port forwarding from 210.0.0.1 to 192.168.0.3 for pptp server, but I cannot connect from my home to pptp server. Here is the nat file: 210.0.0.1 eth0:2 192.168.0.2 Here is the rules

Hi all I'm not sure whether to go to the ppp lists for this, or the samba lists. I thought I'd try here first. I have a linux firewall using winbind to authenticate users coming in with PPTP. It all seemed to work OK at first. After a while I noticed that authentication was denied to users who had previously (as in less than a day) authenticated successfully. After a day or so of

I try to setup a PPTP VPN server on Centos 7 and from client a router Vodafone Station (Firmware 5.4.8.1.316.1.21) On c7 I have install this: [root at s-virt tmp]# rpm -q pptpd ppppptpd-1.4.0-2.el7.x86_64ppp-2.4.5- 33.el7.x86_64 and setup all file and firewall like howto say.This now is my config: /etc/pptpd.conf:option /etc/ppp/options.pptpd/etc/pptpd.conf:logwtmp/etc/pptpd.conf:localip

Hi All, I've got Andrew's winbind auth patch working in pppd on our pptp server, which at means no-more perl scripts to syncronise LM/NT hashes from openldap to the pptp server :-) I am however finding that usernames 4 characers long are having their username truncated to 3, when passed to winbind, and are subsequently failing. Has anyone else noticed this yet, or is it just me? :-)

Hi, I am facing a task of choosing vpn server. I do not know which is better. The one distributed with CentOS4.5 only supports pppd (or maybe pptp but I cannot find it). If* *I want to use PPTP or L2TP, which one should I choose? OpenVPN? Poptop? Thanks. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I am running shorewall 1.4.8-1 on my firewall. I am also running poptop on this firewall for remote VPN clients to connect to our local network. I would like to set some options in pppd, so that after 2 failed user/pass attempts are tried, the IP address is blacklisted, and an email is sent to the admin of this IP address that has been blacklisted. I know this may be more of a ppp question than

Hi, I have a few remote user who use a PPTP based VPN. The server is running PoPToP (http://www.poptop.org/), and a pppd patched to support MPPE/MPPC for (some) added security. Currently, users authentication information is stored in plaintext in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets. I'd like to be able to put users into LDAP, and have ppp authenticate either directly against LDAP, or against Samba (with an

I'm writing a script to sync some mp3 files. Due to a limitation in the number of destination files that can be read from my thumb drive, I'm not looking to preserve the original file structure (actually, I'm looking to sync *only the files* to the new destination directory). The source files are all subfolders under /backup/Music: ./Adrian Legg/Mrs. Crowe's Blue Waltz/Paddy

Hello all, I am working on a VPN solution using FC3-2.6.12-1.1381 - openswan 2.4.4-1 - l2tpd 0.69-13 - pppd 2.4.3-5 - samba 3.0.10-1. When attempting a connection from an XP-SP2 box pppd dies without authenticating the user (see below). I have run ntlm_auth from the command line with success. What tools can I use to identify the failure? Is there an obvious error in the ppp options file?

Yes your chap-secret file could be the issue, it should look like this: Your_usrname * Your_password * That?s it :) But if that don?t work include this file to the list: /etc/ppp/pptpd-options It should look something like this: ipparam PoPToP lock mtu 1490 mru 1490 ms-wins 172.x.y.1 ms-dns 172.x.y.1 multilink proxyarp auth +chapms-v2 ipcp-accept-local ipcp-accept-remote lcp-echo-failure 30

I''m trying to set up customer egress shaping on concentrator that customers connect to using pptp (which uses pppd). This means customers each have a pppXXX interface when they connect. It''s easy to shape their "down" speed this way, and when they disconnect the interface is gone and thus the shaping rules automatically go away as well. However, shaping their upload

Hi ! Recently i switched my internet provider, to get more speed but another braindead setup regarding public ip addresses. I now have 4 PPTP Tunnel available, of which i''m using one as the gateway ip doing masquerading to other machines in my local lan, excluding three other machines, which i would like to use 1:1 nat to get them a direct access to one of the pptp tunnels. I was

My goal is to make VPN access to our Samba PDC (FreeBSD 7.0) so that users can access there home shares from Windows clients. I have read the instructions at http://samba.org/ftp/unpacked/lorikeet/pppd/final-report.pdf, but I can't make it work. Don't know if is due to my lack of skills or has something to do with the Popop functionality in FreeBSD. Following the instructions, i made a

Hi, I want to know how to use ntlm_auth with ntlm-server-1 and freeradius, with the users login and password information in ldap. I have read documentation of ntlm_auth (only found the man page), docs and howtos about pptp and squid, i don't found about freeradius, and i'm experimenting with the options of ntlm_auth. I have configured freeradius+ldap+802.1X for a wireless lan, but i

I'm wondering if I'm seeing a regression of 5616 with 3.4.8. I'm trying to set-up pptpd with winbind, which I'm doing on two machines on Debian lenny, and I'm trying on Debian Squeeze now. The Windows client is saying "Error 778: It was not possible to verify the identity of the server." The logs say that everything is ok, and that the client is hanging up the

Hi all I have succesfully set up PPTP VPN access to my company using PoPToP/pppd (thank you Tom for excellent documentation), everything works fine so far. Problem is security. As I understand it, since PPTP ports trough tunnel are opened to whole Internet (have to be), access verification is now based only on username/password combination. Can level of security be raised with MAC verification?

Hi Rowland, I did enable NTLMv1 to provide necessary support for pppd for PPTP VPN connections and that's working as expected. I however do not find any release notes pertaining to 'winbind use default domain = yes' no longer working on a Samba DC. The Samba man pages appear to detail options which apply to winbindd (https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages/winbindd.8.html),

Hello, We can't connect to our pptp server through our CentOS gateway with a XP client. The linux client is working but not the XP client. I know for a fact that the pptp server is not the problem because if I connect the XP machine directly to the Internet the pptp vpn is working. I know about the pptp-conntrack-nat patch, I compiled the 2.4.9 kernel, with patch-o-matic-ng-20060511.tar.bz2
