Just one quick question. Is this a domain environment? Because if so, would it not be better to setup a pptp server on the dc, and use port forwarding?? ------Original Message------ From: Mark Ryden Sender: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx To: fedora-list ReplyTo: Community assistance, encouragement,and advice for using Fedora. Subject: VPN server in Fedora Sent: 19 Nov 2009 7:07 PM Hello, - I found out that there are two common ways to run a VPN server on Linux. One way is using ipsec, with projects like openswan/strongswan. The other is running pptpd server; this implements a Virtual Private Networking Server (VPN) that iscompatible with Microsoft VPN clients, and allows windows users to connect to an internal firewalled network using their dialup. See http://poptop.sourceforge.net/. When looking for rpms for Fedora 11 or Fedora 10, I found out that there is no pptpd ("yum install pptpd" results in No package pptpd available. Nothing to do). There is however, openswan rpm for fedora 10 or 11. My question is: what is the reason that there is no pptp rpm packages for newer Fedora distros ? is some other solution replaces it ? is there a better Linux VPN server solution which enables Microsoft VPN clients to connect to a Linux VPN server ?
