Are you using the CVS repository from netfilter.org or some package based on it? The code from CVS worked fine for me. The runme script should print a message Examining kernel in /usr/src/Pol/linux-2.4.20 The PPTP kernel patch from CVS http://cvs.netfilter.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/netfilter/patch-o-matic/extra/ fails to rewrite the replies from the remote PPTP server. Check the netfilter-devel thread with the fix offered by Philip Craig, http://lists.netfilter.org/pipermail/netfilter-devel/2002-November/009902.html http://lists.netfilter.org/pipermail/netfilter-devel/2002-December/009913.html I've uploaded the cumulative PPTP patch against Linux 2.4.20 to http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=654010&group_id=44827&atid=441005 -- Ilguiz Latypov Net Integration Technologies, Inc tel. +1 (514) 281 9191 x 117 On Mon, 23 Dec 2002, Roy Sigurd Karlsbakk wrote: > hi all > > still trying to patch up my kernel to allow for PPTP NATing, but patch-o-matic > simply fails.
