Hello Linux friends,

Im quite new to linux, as I was bored and frustrated with M$ XP decided to install KDE on my server.
With help from our best friend google and these forums I almost managed to get my server completely working under Linux Suse 10.3

As expected I came across a few bumps in the road to linux, but patient as I am I managed to go sort most of them out which leaves me to one issue I need some help with.

I installed a VPN server on my server (pptpd) which is can connect to.

When I connect to my Linux server from my M$ work laptop I am registered on the network and I can ping the device.

My network looks like this.
I forwarded port 1723 to my server so I can connect from the internet to my server (VPN port) I can login from the WAN address and also enabled IP forwarding on my linux server.

Server IP: 192.168.2.189
work laptop IP: 192.168.2.101
VPN IP laptop: 10.10.10.10

I tried forwarding the VPN route to my gateway, but seem to be stuck.

Also I disabled the Suse firewall (as I am behind a firewall of my router)

To me it seems like there is a problem with my route table

I cant use NX remote control and SSH.. so that why I thought my routes were bad.

Enclosed you will see my route table:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
10.10.10.10 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
link-local * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
default 192.168.2.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

Any ideas ?

Welcome to the forums.....

I dont use VPN but perhaps you need to open the SSHD port 22 as well on the router?

Thanks

I tried forwarding port 22, but this also does not work.

Any ideas ?
