similar to: Choosing VPN Server

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?

Folks I would like to have my windows 7 laptop communicate with my home server via a VPN, in such a way that it appears to be "inside" my home network. It should not only let me appear to be at home for any external query, but also let me access my computers inside my home. I already have this working using M$'s PPTP using my home Centos 6 gateway/router as the PoPToP server.

So far, OpenVPN has been working very well for me. Unfortunately, the iPhone doesn't have (yet?) an OpenVPN client, so I'm forced to work with what's available. The options are: L2TP, PPTP and IPSec. If you were to install a VPN endpoint on CentOS, which protocol would you prefer? The condition is to avoid shabby VPN servers that make the system less secure. I've seen some

Hello, now I have spent many hours to configure openswan for VPN connections without any success. My goal: VPN Server CentOS 6 with public IPv4 VPN Client (= road warrier) from private site with NAT router or from mobile cell with Linux, Windows 7, Mac, iPhone or Android Is there any how to in the net? When I read file:///usr/share/doc/openswan-doc-2.6.32/config.html then I belive, there is

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

And openvpn. Avoid ipsec as it's too complex and pptp is unsecure. Eero 4.4.2016 9.55 ip.

I don't want to use a VPN to solve this one.

I have a server currently connecting to a pptp remote server. This server(lns\lac) has the option for pptp connections and l2tp connections. The l2tp connections are not using ipsec encryption at all. I have seen couple guides\tutorials on the internet: - https://raymii.org/s/tutorials/IPSEC_L2TP_vpn_on_CentOS_-_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_or_Scientific_-_Linux_6.html -

Hello, i need to configure a centos 6.3 - server as an l2tp/ipsec-client. I have no idea how I there previous or if this is even possible. Where one might find appropriate instructions? Google is not very helpful, without any idea. Thanks cami

Greetings. Apologies if this has been asked before. I've gone through Google and the archives to no avail. I am seeking to implement a unified authentication mechanism for a small(Less than 50 users) setup. I've been trying to wrap my head around PAM and SAMBA. It almost seems like it can be done, but I can't quite convince myself. Most of my users are Windows

Hello all, I was not able to find much on this in the archives so I hope someone can help Me with this. Can samba 3.x help the authentication of a Microsoft client authenticating with MSCHAPv2 passwords to my linux box which we use to authenticate a user stored on a Microsoft Active Directory server. The authentication request comes in through RADIUS which I can convert to LDAP,but that

Hey John, I do not require encryption at all, it's a secure and internal channel but it requires me to connect via either pptp or l2tp. This is the reason I am asking. I had the chance of finding the SoftEther Project which gives a lot in terms of VPN Client and Server. At: http://www.softether-download.com/en.aspx But yet to try it. Also they have all sorts of beta versions but not

Last question, I promise, I am running PopTop for PPTP on the same box as my firewall. I can connect to the box fine, but nothing will route between the VPN tunnel and the local hosts. I read the Some Hosts have Special Firewalling Requirements article and though it was what I needed, but either I don''t get it, or it doesn''t apply to me. Here is my config: Zones: #ZONE

Good Morning Everyone, I have a server that runs Shorewall/Samba/PPTP (Poptop). When we try to connect to the PPTP server from outside of the company, the Windows XP pro client can establish the connection. We can then ping the server and the clients behind the server without any problem, but the issue becomes that we cannot map to any of the shares on the samba server or to any client for that

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have a situation where some Poptop/PPTP sessions (only with FC5/Shorewall to FC5/Shorewall firewall in between) cause the following to appear in the state table (shorewall show connections). unknown 47 420 src=XX.234.79.183 dst=XX.234.137.226 packets=2 bytes=130 [UNREPLIED] src=XX.234.137.226 dst=XX.234.79.183 packets=0 bytes=0 mark=0 use=1

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

Hi there.... Has anyone seen a tutorial around for a pptp server (on the same server as the firewall) for centos/rhel 4? I have been following a few general tutorials for POPTOP, but nothing seems to really work as of yet. Thanks! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hey Gordon, I do not have any security issue in this network. I need to connect to a remote network on a secure network. The options are pptp or l2tp(no ipsec encryption) so I do want to use l2tp like in (lac\lns) and I am looking for a client for CentOS. Note that it works in ubuntu so it is possible to achieve the same with CentOS but I do not know what is behind the gui that initiates the

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.
