All = of my roaming clients (win98, win2000,winNT) at remote locations are = able to connect to my VPN server when they connect to their local ISP = and can access each and every TCP/IP service running internally on my = Private IP machines (192.168.7.*) once they are authenticated. I wanted similar implementation of VPN preferably using IPTABLES setup = on RH7.2.(eth0-192.168.7.254/255.255.255.0, = eth1-a.b.c.d/255.255.255.240) so that I can have same Windows clients = accessing my LAN of private IPs using a LINUX VPN server maybe on = ipsec/PPTP, or whatever windows operating systems also support. I know = the performance is going to be great in LINUX. Can anyone tell me about a good solution in LINUX OR the exact steps and = IPTABLE commands OR links to documents, trying to achieve something = similar?
