MNF 9.2 and VPN


I setup MNF and I'm having issues configuring the VPN portion of it. This VPN section has plagued me for over a week. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks!!

It's 9.2 and there is no VPN to VPN going on. Just clients connecting in(through)... Thanks!

I want my M$ clients to be able to VPN into the system like we currently do with our Cisco PIX...

I've gotten as far as exporting the certificate to my windows box but no connections are happening...

ensure that the protocol 47 is allowed through the firewall and forwarded to VPN server if needed...

not too sure what your trying to do and I havent used mandrake so yeah... dont even know if its a firewall issue

I use iptables on my gateway to forward to VPN... im guessing that MNF uses a firewall

# Redirect VPN Traffic
$IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -i $OUTSIDE -p tcp -m tcp --dport $VPN_PORT -j DNAT --to $VPN_IP:$VPN_PORT
$IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -i $OUTSIDE -p 47 -j DNAT --to $VPN_IP

# VPN
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -i $OUTSIDE -d 0/0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 1723 -j ACCEPT
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -i $OUTSIDE -d 0/0 -p 47 -j ACCEPT

so check that all needed ports/protocols are open
hope that helps
