-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi! I want to to that local network ---eth0--- tunnel entry point ---- tunnel exit point. (windows and linux pcs) I''m using vtun and I''m masquerating on both tunnel machines, my problem is now that a ping works also small packets but if the packet gets bigger I get that with tcpdump on my tunnel exit point. tcpdump -n -i eth0 host heise.de 21:03:32.595835 194.242.45.xxx > 193.99.144.71: icmp: 10.3.0.2 unreachable - need to frag (mtu 1450) [tos 0xc0] 21:03:38.794269 193.99.144.71.80 > 194.242.45.xxx.32819: R 1387534372:1387534372(0) ack 3349554176 win 0 here the setup of my tunnel entry point: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:CB:59:EE:85 inet addr:10.149.xx.xx Bcast:10.149.xx.255 Mask:255.255.240.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 tun0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol inet addr:10.3.0.2 P-t-P:10.3.0.1 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1450 Metric:1 I did a little searching on the internet, and the only stuff I found was from 2000, where something simlular happend, and the answer was to set the clients to mtu 1450, is that the still the only way. (didn''t try it sofar) but what I don''t understand, that the mtu is always 1450 .... so why is that only a problem with my setup? - -- Regards, Robert - ---------------- Robert Penz robert.penz AT outertech.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9l1ZC8tTsQqJDUBMRAiLMAJ4mhO4FGkjXbYioRDyerl1nHboLcgCeNi+W YLVA3MaoyN/bELX7g1OPw6k=UPRC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
