Will openvpn allow you to assign IP address by user id? I mean its true now that when I make the pppd call I can specify (request) what address I want, but it would be nice if the server could do the assigning. Clients do rely on receiving the same IP address. (I mean the same one, but each client gets a different IP). -----Original Message----- From: James Cameron [mailto:quozl@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, September 8, 2009 08:12 PM To: linux-ppp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: several sites through router This has nothing to do with pppd, but is a common problem with pptp, in future ask on the pptpclient-devel mailing list instead. Or even the poptop (pptpd) mailing list. Since I'm there anyway ... what you describe is a failure of the router to use a unique call identifier when it readdresses the packets, or a failure of the pptpd at the remote site to demultiplex the PPP over GRE stream. > Now I have control of all the machines, clients and server, and they > are all running poptop available through CentOS 4.5. You should use OpenVPN instead then. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ppp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ppp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
