Problem with pptp nat/contrack

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Trying to use pptp nat/contrack modules to access VPN server on the internet
from a client(W2k, SP2) behind my nat/firewall iptables machine.

Versions used: iptables 1.2.9rc1
pom from cvs snapshot (20031007)

Network setup:
192.168.168.175 (netmask 255.255.255.0) ==> cisco1 192.168.168.1 ==>
cisco2 192.168.120.2 ==> linux nat box 192.168.120.1 ==> (internet) ==> VPN
PPTP Server (WatchGuard Technologies, Inc.)

WITHOUT ip_nat_pptp, ip_conntrack_pptp, ip_conntrack_proto_gre,
ip_nat_proto_gre loaded: 
Connection to external VPN Server works, but just one client at a time may
access the VPN server.

WITH the above modules loaded: 
Connection can't be established. Packet dump shows: gre encapsulated ppp conf
req going out; returning (ppp conf rej) packets show up on the firewall
external interface, but don't show up on  the internal interface/network;
instead they end up being blocked by INPUT firewall - rules; looks like they
aren't correctly associated with the gre expectation and end up being treated
as destined for the firewall locally. iptables configuration/rules were not
changed from previous test, so I'd expect the ruleset to be OK.

Any Idea where to start looking?


Yours, Martin
