similar to: Q: Controlling access at the Ethernet level

Once you have Samba shares up and running on the internal network, how do you go about making them available (browsable) via the Internet--a VPN? I hate to say it but in Windows 2k it's just a matter of a few clicks on the server and client. I'm hoping that it's not much harder with a Linux server/Windows client. Anything involving something like SSH will be too hard for most users.

Just be sure to go for switches that allow you to deny incoming already tagged packets on the user side as some switches passes already tagged packets. For a wireless environment i would suggest PPPoE

Anyone ever thought about an Ethernet based channel bank? Basically a rack mount set of 24 IAXys? That would be cool, IMO. No wrangling with zaptel, etc. IAX as the * <-> Channel bank protocol. Just an idea...

My problem is simple and I've issued it about 3 weeks ago. I want the UAs to authenticate with a number to the SIP server. Is this possible? For example, I configured an AT-RG613TX (Allied Telesyn Residential Gateway). In its configuration it is not possible for me to skip specifying a number (ex. 102) along with the username. I've looked into the source code (SIP implementation) of

Hello everybody, althought there are a lot of discussions on Samba's performance, I would like to share my results trying to connect Samba running on a Linux box to a Win95 workstation on a fast ethernet network. If any of you could have some ideas or suggestions , please mail me (cc: teo@flex.ro) because I am not (yet) on this mail list. First of all, may I present you : 1. THE SERVER -

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

Hi, Is there a security problem with ssh that I've missed??? Ik keep getting these hords of: Failed password for root from 69.242.5.195 port 39239 ssh2 with all kinds of different source addresses. They have a shot or 15 and then they are of again, but a little later on they're back and keep clogging my logs. Is there a "easy" way of getting these ip-numbers added to

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''ve got what I think is a fairly simple home network configuration with one Linux box functioning as the firewall, VPN server, DHCP server and file/print server. I am having trouble configuring both a VPN server (PopTop) and the firewall rules for a W2K PPTP VPN client. The VPN server runs on the firewall machine and the VPN client runs on a W2K machine behind the firewall. The VPN

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

Greetings List Members, I''ll firstly apologise if this isn''t the place that I should be posting this message but here goes. What I want to do is have a VPN (PPTP/IPSEC/CIPE/etc) server, but it must support more than one simultaneous connection. I currently have a PPTP VPN server setup that has port 1723 and protocol 47 DNAT''d through to the internal IP

Thank you, Rowland. I will be going by this afternoon and I will check. The thing is, if it IS "\", how do I enter that into the pptp-options file? The entire list of parameters are in quotes, so do I need a double-backslah or anything?

Hello, I''m trying to setup DNAT to forward to a PPTP Server behind Shorewall. I setup the PPTP rules per your documentation with tcp port 1723 and Protocol 47 DNAT to my PPTP Server in the local zone. Looking at the logs it is dropping the connection going to port 1723. It is also dropping UDP port 1701, don''t know if it is of any significance. I looked at FAQ 1a and b and the

I have installed latest Shorewall 1.46b on my Debian Woody ( debian-kernel 2.4.21 + iptables 1.28 ) I have an Ethernet ADSL Modem that connect using " PPTP " My ADSL line has dynamic IP.

I am not sure how to determine the separator, but 'which' shows "/usr/bin/ntlm_auth". I already ran it while on-site. Since it is broken, I cannot remote in. I will have to show up on-site again, possibly Thursday.

That is client setup. We have that under control. Our Linux users use Network Manager to connect and our Windows users use the stuff built into Windows. My problem is server-side.

Hi Tom, I nearly completed the test and installation related to http://www.shorewall.net/PPTP.htm. However, there is no serious problem when it is operated as it is in the general companies, but there is Client Program for MS-Window that is operated only by Public IP. So I am very concerned about it. I would like to use Internet through Gateway in (B) as local computers in (A) receive Public

Hi all, I´m running a server that frecuently needs to open a pptp session with a remote server outside my Company.
