Hello, I have the need to connect 2 remote site with vpn, the windows pc of the 2 site it can share the HD and printer. This is my configuration : LOCAL NETWORK A : ip from 192.168.10.2 to 192.168.10.99 | | | | eth0: 192.168.10.1 FIREWALL A : ( with debian ; openvpn ver. 2.0.beta15 ; shorewall ver 2.0.11 ) eth1 : xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ( pubblic ip address ) | | | | INTERNET | | | eth1 :

Here is the scenario: I have one server with kernel 2.4.24 with a bridge br0 made of 2 interfaces, eth0 and tap0 (the last is an OpenVPN tunnel), and one remote computer connetting through tap0. If I assign a static IP to the remote computer, the bridge works perfecly (so I think the problem is not OpenVPN-related). If I start a DHCPd on the server and I configure the remote client to get the

Hello list, Please don''t shoot me. I know I''m doing something with bonding that bonding wasn''t made for. I just want to give it a try. I want a simple mechanism to have a failover on a 24Mbit line to a 2Mbit line in case the 24Mbit line goes down. Between A and B there are two lines: a 24Mbit and a 2Mbit. I use two OpenVPN tunnels with tap devices: +-- tap0 (A)---

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I''m running Shorewall 4.4.0/Debian Lenny and I''m trying to setup OpenVPN with a mild degree of success so far. My ultimate end goal is to basically have an extension of my home lan to my laptop as well as my wife''s when we are away from home, and have all of my normal network resources available as if I were sitting at home

Code: 1. First establish a VPN. I use a bridged VPN set up with OpenVPN. It works fine. The VPN client created a tap0 interface with the IP 11.0.0.3. 2. Re-route packets for 255.255.255.255 to your VPN interface (Here tap0) # route add host 255.255.255.255 dev tap0 3. In /etc/hosts, remove any reference to your hostname (TACHIBANA here) and, on the first line, add : 11.0.0.3 TACHIBANA 4. Compile

Hi all.

I am trying to make the following connection: WindowsXP(OpenVPN-Client)->shorewall->Internet->LinksysWRTG->OpenVPN-Server ...of course the reverse path too. The OpenVPN server is running in bridge mode. When the openVPN client is launched it looks like a successful connection is made. The openVPN client gets assigned an address from the openVPN server pool. The OpenVPN

I have been delighted by tinc. Building a mesh like I need would have been horrible in OpenVPN. tinc makes it easy. I decided to share a workaround for a problem that's been vexing me. Either I'm being dumb (and can do this better with a hint) or this is something others might need. I've been moving a bunch of services from our university to Amazon (EC2). To do this, I bring

Hey all, I''m trying to setup roadwarrior connection to my internal network. So I''ve setup openvpn to create a tap0 connection and also have bridged the eth1 (leads to my internal computers 192.168.2.10-30 and tap0 which is the VPN connection. On my shorewall setup I have br0 maped to zone loc and eth0 to be my internet and I have masqing on my br0 to get my internal computers

Hi all. I would need to use a single physical interface on a Linux box to manage two different IP addresses (belonging to two separate logical subnets) with two different MAC address. (I need to emulate te presence of two separate physical interfaceses for a PC on the same LAN, at layer 2 and layer 3). Is it possible to use the linux ethernet bridging code and two tap interfaces for this

Hello, I successfully set up a tunnel with tinc using the tun interface. however I need a tap device, because I need to run the OLSR routing protocol on the tunnel and if I use the tun mode OLSR will just skip the interface. (It is a well known thing, I had this issue before also when using OpenVPN in the past). The problem is that I cannot make tinc use a tap device. I created the tap0

Ok. I''m knocking down one problem at a time. I''ve managed to figure out how to bridge my tap0 and my eth1 with br0. This is good stuff. But if I have shorewall running, I can''t ping the local network at all. If I have shorewall not running, I can ping the local network. Here is my setup. Firewall/NAT box: eth0 - DHCP from cable provider eth1 -

Good day, I have gone through a couple of the HOWTO''s on how to get this to work, but I am still sitting with a very strange (for me) issue. If two clients connect via OpenVPN (bridged), they can access each other without any problems, but neither of them can access the server, nor any system behind it. I am fairly sure it is a Shorewall issue, but I am very new to Shorewall, having

Hi, I have some problems with my OpenVPN server in a Xen DomU. OpenVPN works fantastic but theres a problem connecting other DomUs on this server. I have the following iptable rule to forward the requests to the internet. iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.8.0.0/24 -j MASQUERADE This works fine. I can connect to other DomUs on the same server but they can''t answer the

I have setup a bridged connection using the guide on openvpn.sourceforge.net. The two linux gateways have established a vpn connection over the internet but i can''t seem to get anything through it. I''m using shorewall, but pretty much all the policies are open right now. One thing that i see i am doing different is that i have two different ip setups on the two networks.

Well, I found a solution and posted it on the appdb's page of Red Alert 3. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=14371 Here's a copy of the informations I posted on the Red Alert's Appdb webpage : > Thanks to raphael, here's a mini "how to play on LAN to RA3 with Wine + windows users, when the LAN is a VPN" > > My hostname, in

I have previously set up an openvpn LAN to LAN bridging VPN so I know a little about what has to happen. The gateways on either ends were running older version of shorewall that did not support openvpn directly so I just basically opened ports for it and used bridging with tap interfaces. I am no longer using that vpn link to the other house but now that i''ve upgraded I would like

Hello, I have an OpenVPN running on a system with Samba 3.0.9. However, with this setting (tun2 is my VPN device): interfaces = tun2, lo bind interfaces only = Yes it doesn't bind to tun2, but to ppp0. What the heck? Tomek

Hi, I have a few questions about the inner workings of netfilter (a graphical layout of my network setup @ https://aequorin.homeunix.net:62389/local/media/network-graph.png) 1) These are the syslog entries for some simple connection tests. Shorewall/netfilter has been set to record all stateful connections SSH is recognized as phys(eth0) -> $FW traffic. This is because PHYSIN is
