Hi all

Sorry for my ignorance.

But why would nat a vpn tunnel be a problem.
Are there certain requirement for creating tunnel.
Can the vpn server \ client be on the same box as the iptables
gateway\router\firewall.

If I remember from Anthony Stone (who seems to be missing in action, anyone
know why) correctly, its best to not have
any services running on fw.

just something I was wondering.

Kind Regards
Brent Clark.
