Hi, Seems that the VPN PPTP connection to MS PPTP server is OK as from the /var/log/messages, but I can not access the required IP behind the MS server. (But from Windows XP , I have no problems to connect to desired IP) Here are the details: 1. Before starting my netstat -r (1.1.1.0 is my local network) Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 1.1.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 192.168.122.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 virbr0 link-local * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default 1.1.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 After command: pppd call vpn1 I got the following messages in /var/log/messages Jul 22 14:21:14 razleefs pppd[2898]: pppd 2.4.4 started by root, uid 0 Jul 22 14:21:14 razleefs pppd[2898]: Using interface ppp0 Jul 22 14:21:14 razleefs pppd[2898]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/3 Jul 22 14:21:20 razleefs pptp[2900]: anon log[main:pptp.c:276]: The synchro pptp option is NOT activated d_accm is 00000000, recv_accm is FFFFFFFF Jul 22 14:21:22 razleefs pptp[2917]: anon warn[ctrlp_disp:pptp_ctrl.c:955]: zero Async Control Character Maps are not supported!

I can not do it without some route commands. I tried the suggested commands in vain: route add -net 192.168.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp0 route add -net 172.25.9.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp0 I tried ping 172.25.9.64 but it hanged up, and I got the message: ping 172.25.9.64 PING 172.25.9.64 (172.25.9.64) 56(84) bytes of data. ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted (telnet 172.25.9.64 simply hangs up) I am looking for correct route commands to make it working...
