With these settings I have exactly the behaviour I now need as in my original posting. i.e. all traffic except work machines goes out via my normal isp, but work packets go through the tunnel. I also made sure that my firewall allows ppp0 and type 47 packets through - and I am running with selinux enforcing. My local named is modified to run split dns for local LAN addresses from my home dns server and 144.33 addresses from the university dns. It took a lot of fiddling to find the right recipe and it would be nice to have a tutorial explaining how to do these things on the net somewhere. However I did run searches quite extensively and did not find a how-to or guide that explained the detail in a form that I could understand! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/NetworkManager-pptp-vpn-and-routes--tp24457880p24487854.html Sent from the Fedora List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
