RE: PPTP/IPSec multiple clients behind iptables NAT

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

 



PPTP requires a patching of the kernel and a recompile of the kernel and
iptables (against the new kernel headers) to make this work.  It also
matters which kernel version you are using.  There have been
miscellaneous problems with different kernels report.  I believe many
have been fixed though.
