I'm on Fedora 9, with NetworkManager-vpnc-0.7.0-0.11.svn4326.fc9.i386 I used entries like this in the routes table gui thing (nm -> VPN connections -> configure VPN, click VPN tab, click vpn connection, click edit, click IPv4 settings, click routes): address netmask gateway metric x.y.0.0 255.255.0.0 f.g.0.0 255.255.0.0 With nothing set for gateway or metric. Note: I haven't been able to find the file with this data! It was easy to find with earlier versions, it's a real pain to add a lot of routes, plus you can't cut and paste via the gui form. AFAIR, I could not get a netmask of 255.255.255.0 to work, I didn't try anything other than that and 255.255.0.0. All public addresses can be reached via the VPN I'm using, so it does not hurt me to route more addresses through it than required. I do NOT have "ignore automatically obtained routes" checked (I thought I had it checked but don't). But ... nm vpn is broken for me (as posted here recently), so I've been using the cisco VPN (the non-NM vpnc works fine). -- Patrick Mansfield -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
