VPN through the firewall
I've got a SUSE box running my home firewall and a WinXP work machine that I use to VPN into the office network. Before I put this SUSE 9.2 in I had a Mandrake 9.1 box that worked just fine.
Everything but my VPN connection to the office works.
I've added all kinds of rules to try to get this to work, but nothings working. I don't see any packets getting dropped/rejected. It looks like it makes the connection to the vpn server, but it's not verifying the password.
With Ethereal I see this:
Source: 129.230.241.140
Destination: 192.168.0.73
Protocol: EAP
Info: Request, EAP-TLS [RFC2716] [Aboba]
That line just keeps repeating until it timesout with a 619 on the windows machine.
Help would be greatly appreciated!

by VPN, do you mean PPTP?

Yes, PPTP I believe.

mandrake 9.1 == 2.4 kernel-based
mandrake also had a tendency to ship the pptp/gre conntrack/nat kernel modules as part of their kernels...
Gary W. Smith can speak to this much better than myself, but 2.6 + pptp/gre conntrack/nat is not a winning combo, AFAIK...
