hello all
I've got a problem to connect vpn client to vpn server through gateway ( mandriva + iptables)
I've opened 47 and 1723 ports but in tcpdump
vpn client sending request to the vpn server and vpn server answering not to client but to gateway, what should i do to make it all work
Thanks for the help

if anyone knows, plz help

If you are trying to establish a PPTP based VPN, then I believe its protocol 47 (GRE), not port 47.

192.168.0.2 - vpn client
vpn.server.com - vpn server
gateway.server - gateway (mandrake + iptables)

tcpdump:
