I don't remember FreeSwan having PPTP, but if it does then great. Are you sure it isn't L2TP that the clients are connecting with?

Anyways, you will have to modify your kernel with Patch-O-Matic from the Netfilter CVS repository, and grab the userspace tools just in case you need to use those ones with your newly created kernel. The support for PPTP is still rather experimental. I haven't had problems with their latest code though.

Apply any patches in Patch-O-Matic that apply to pptp and GRE.
Recompile kernel
Build Userspace tools from CVS
Reboot
# depmod
# modprobe ip_conntrack_proto_gre
# modprobe ip_conntrack_pptp
# modprobe ip_nat_proto_gre
# modprobe ip_nat_pptp


Ideally, this should allow for multiple PPTP clients through your firewall at the same time.

Hi Friends,

A have a Gateway Gnu/Linux, Debian 3.0 rc1  with kernel 2.4.22, iptables 
1.2.8-8 and freeswan 2.02 in São Paulo and i have another Linux in 
Rio-de-Janeiro with Red-Hat 6.2, ipchains and the path-pptp. Clients in 
São Paulo have to conect in Rio-de-Janeiro throught PPTP and the problem 
its that the Server in Rio accepts only one connection.

In my Firewall here in São Paulo i'm put only one rule just to do the tests:

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE

The chains in my FIREWALL are ACCEPT

Have I enable any rule or patch in kernel ?

I would like to know whats going on, cause the server in RIO just ACCEPT 
one connection. There is something that should i do? ... rules... path 
in my kernel.....



Thank you very much
