the limitation, which may have been patched and with out being aware of it as I
don't use PPTP (yet), is in the helper module for > connection tracking
for PPTP. I would have to refresh my self on the PPTP protocol and it's
interaction with IPTables. I suggest you do some more > reading on
the mailing list as well as on NetFilter.org to see if you can find out
something else. I have just come across some information that says that the
connection tracking support for PPTP connections in particular is now part of
the mainstream kernel ( >= 2.6.14 ). I am currently downloading version
2.6.18-3 and will let you know how it goes. PS. I’m using CentOS which probably isn’t the
best choice for hacking things to pieces – guess that serves me right. I
believe debian (Sarge) has support for pptp_conntrack in it already so I might
give that a go as well. If you’re interested I am more than happy to discuss
this matter off the mailing lists, but perhaps may serve a better purpose by
being on the lists for future reference for others. |
