Thanks Chris :)

I'm using ipsec. Currently, my iptables is configured using stateful packet inspection.
Do i have to add the rules for port TCP/UDP 50 and TCP 50 ???
Thank you :)

VPN is a generic term. What kind of VPN are you talking about? IPSec?
PPTP? SSL?

If you mean IPSec, you need to open UDP/500 to UDP/500 as well as
protocol 50. You also want to make sure that IPSec/IKE is only
negotiating ESP as a security service, not AH.
