masquerade for l2tp


I have openvpn running on 10.x.x.x and 172.x.x.x
I need to install l2tp
1/ is it secure? I heard pptp was not secure
2/ how do I masquerade this to a network other than the openvpn networks

Well... no I wouldn't say it's THAT secure. But if you just want to get around you everyday packet sniffer it's okay.

Not sure what you mean with 2/ You want to know how to setup your IPTables for L2TP?

yes but also what internal network IP do I use if 10/24 and 172/24
are already taken?
this is the current routing:
Code:
[root ~]# route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
10.8.0.2        0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 tun1
172.16.0.2      0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 tun0
10.8.0.0        10.8.0.2        255.255.255.0   UG    0      0        0 tun1
172.16.0.0      172.16.0.2      255.255.255.0   UG    0      0        0 tun0
88.xxx.xxx.0    0.0.0.0         255.255.252.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
169.254.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 eth0
0.0.0.0         88.xxx.xxx.1    0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
[root ~]#
So what is the most secure out of l2tp, pptp, and ipsec?
