i used a static route to redirect the traffic on the lan host to the host allowed in a vpn server. but now i dont know over what ip is the traffic lefting the server.
i did a iptable rule on the vpn client, like this;
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
tcp -- 192.168.0.11 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx <- server eth0:1 ip
but looking the tcpdump on the vpn client allowed, i cant see if the traffic is outgoing via the eth0:1 instead i see something like this
guillermo,
Sorry, I could not get the topology as par your configuration !
It will help to understand, if you provide information like:
1. Draw a ascii diagram of your network mentioning the vpn server, client and other hosts (with some ip address).
2. What kind of vpn client/server you are using ?
3. Why you need iptables ?
