How to setup a vpn server on centos? I can't find the pptpd in any repo

Hey, The company I work for is in the market for a new firewall. Right now we're hosting all of our own stuff (on CentOS servers) behind an old checkpoint firewall. I think Checkpoint is overkill for our needs and very expensive, plus I don't like the "per-user" charges of some commercial solutions. What do you guys suggest that we upgrade to? Here are some of the

I have set up a VPN over PPTP on a CentOS server using the DKMS module rpm dkms-0-2.0.6-3.el4 from http://centos.karan.org/el4/extras/stable/i386/RPMS/repodata/repovie w/dkms-0-2.0.6-3.el4.kb.html and kernel_ppp_mppe-0.0.5-2dkms.noarch.rpm at http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto-fedora- core-3.phtml. I have configured the pptpd server on Centos4 to use MS_CHAPv2, 128bit encryption and

Hi I've been using linux to give VPN access to my corporate LAN using the following software: Centos 5.2 x86 kernel 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5xen pptpd (poptop) 1.3.4 ppp 2.4.4 The Centos server has directly connected the Internet Router, on one interface (eth1) and the LAN on another (eth0) and it works as the firewall/VPN server of my LAN. It mostly works, however, if I try to connect using

I am attempting to utilize BackupPC on a Fedora 14 server to backup a remote client. As I understand, it's primary mechanism for finding clients is performing a nmblookup <clientname> This works fine for computers connected to the local network. My issue is extending ?Samba's? search to encompass our other network - the point-to-point VPNs Using OpenVPN, we have a number of road

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 had a look at this page which describes a single VPN zone called "vpn": http://www.shorewall.net/IPSEC-2.6.html Is this the most current information? It is the top page found by Google for "shorewall ipsec" Is there any information about setting up multiple VPN zones for different classes of road warrior? E.g. lets say there are two classes of road warrior:

I am running Poptop 1.1.4 VPN server, Samba 3.0.6, RH 9 (2.4.20-8 patched for mppe-mppc). When the end user connects via VPN, they can create a share to the samba shared folder that was created. When they clost the explorer window, then reopen the shared drive from the "My Computer" view, the share can not be re-opened with the error that the mapped drive is alreay in use. I have

I have installed the shorewall frontend with pptpd tunnelling server. All works fine except only one thing: When the outside users connect to my centos server to shorewall over pptpd vpn tunneling  then the client computer can''t login to live messenger, but the customer can connect perfectly with skype, use mail, internet etc... all of this program installed in their outside computers.

Hello to everyone in the list, i have a IPCop firewall with vpn service running and just one roadwarrior (xp sp2 pc), everything is fine, but when the remote pc tries to connect (or just view) to the samba file server shares there is no accessible. The other clients of the lan are all visibles. Is there any way to view and share the samba file server through the ipcop vpn or i need to setup a

Hi All, Is it possible to establish site-to-site VPN using dynamic IP addresss assigned by ISP ? If yes, I would like to request a sample ipsec.conf for such scenario...

Hello all, I need a very simple routing protocol for VPN redundancy. We have several sites and each site has a Linux router and two IPCops each with an ADSL connection to the internet using different ISP''s. I have configured VPN''s between all of the sites for each IPcop on ispA and the same for the IPCops on ispB. This way, if one of the ISP fails, I change the route on the

hi guys, I'm having trouble accessing samba share files from a windows xp client using a vpn pptp connection. I configured samba and it works excellent on the LAN but when i connect through pptp and access the samba server \\192.168.3.1 I can see the shared folders but when i try to browse them, windows hangs (4 a change!) for a while then returns "the specified network name

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

Hí everybody, you have a nice day. I am configuring accounting in shorewall /etc/shorewall/accounting and the traffic between eth0 (local network)1, eth2(local network2) and eth3(local network3) &lt;--&gt; eth1(ip public network), works fine. I make the accounting because y want to control the remote vpn access(pptpd) throught shorewall. Which is the way to control vpn /ip/access in

You definetly need a TAP connection to make samba work over VPN. We use OpenVPN host2net-accounts created with IPCop here since quite a while and it works with samba without problems. However, the speed is of course not as fast as in local net, but this is rather related to the way the SMB-protocoll works. ;-) ________________________________________ Von: samba [samba-bounces at

I have problems connecting IPSEC VPN clients on the masqueraded network to outside VPN servers. It looks like this: ipsec-user | 192.168.1.10 (DHCP assigned) | | 192.168.1.1 fw-1 (shorewall, Linux 2.6) | 20.20.20.20 (internet) | 30.30.30.30 fw-2 (IPSEC VPN endpoint) | 192.168.100.1 | | 192.168.100.2 server ipsec-user (a road warrior) is supposed to create an IPSEC tunnel to his home

I have just setup a VPN connection three sites using IPCOP. Everything seems to be talking ok, apart from browsing the network neighborhood. There are no NT/Win2K/XP servers running on any of the sites, all sites are just running win98 pc's using tcp/ip. I have tried configuring all PC's to be on the same workgroup and setup sharing, but still each site can only see the pc's

There is such a wealth of knowledge and personal experience on this list that I'd like to get your opinions on our current situation. Currently, we have a simple tri-homed firewall with the internal network on one interface, the dmz on another, and the dirty internet on the last. Also, there is a spare interface on the box which is unused. We use CentOS and manually maintain our rule sets
