Re: [CentOS] pptp vpn through CentOS 4.3.

You don't need the patch in your case.

You may find the DKMS module builder RPM and the ppp_mppe rpm to go with it useful to allow the MPPe encryption to work.
http://linux.dell.com/dkms/
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=44827&package_id=120221&release_id=361763

You also need to make sure you have the latest pptpd rpm installed
pptpd-1.3.0-0.i386.rpm
And you'll need an updated pppd rpm to match
ppp-2.4.3-5.rhel4.i386.rpm

These work for Centos 4, but from the looks of the kernel you are using your system is much older...

What centos version are you using?

You should also be sticking to RPMs whenever possible to make sure your update process is hassle free..

Hello,


We can't connect to our pptp server through our CentOS gateway with a XP client.
The linux client is working but not the XP client. I know for a fact that the pptp server
is not the problem because if I connect the XP machine directly to the Internet the
pptp vpn is working.

I know about the pptp-conntrack-nat patch, I compiled the 2.4.9 kernel,  with
patch-o-matic-ng-20060511.tar.bz2 without any problem. But compiling iptables end
with this error:
make: *** [extensions/libipt_connlimit_sh.o] Error 1

I'm wondering if we really need that patch, because that patch seems to be only needed
when you want simultaneous pptp connection, which is not my case. I only want to be able
to make a simple pptp connection.

Any pointers?

Thanks.
