I had this kind of problem too. And i figured out that only one GRE
protocol VPN connection works at a time. I think this problem is in the
hi Neil
Its seem i am also facing the same problem,
I configured VPN befind the firewall, with the rules given by Pascal
Hambourg.
But when i connect more than one client, the old client connection get
terminated.
My rule are
#### SNATing 192.168.1.33
iptables -A FORWARD -s 192.168.1.33 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.33 -j SNAT --to-source
203.129.224.180
#### DNATing 192.168.1.33 on port 1723 and protocol 47
iptables -A FORWARD -d 192.168.1.33 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth1 -d 203.129.224.180 --dport
1723 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.33:1723
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -d 203.129.224.180 -p 47 -j DNAT --to
192.168.1.33
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -d 192.168.1.33 -p 47 -j ACCEPT
Is any one is facing the same problem,
Or i have to go for pprpproxy?
kernel or in iptables conntrack (maybe the way they control the flow),
but there is a way, you have to use a PPTP proxy. I use a pptpproxy from
http://www.mgix.com/pptpproxy/ and works fine! Now i have 6 GRE VPN
connection simultaneously.

Is it possible to put vpn server befind firewall?
Is anybody did this before?
I tried it. I was able to get things working for the
most part, but had intermittent problems.
I eventualy moved my VPN server outside the firewall.
I hope this reference point helps.
