Bay Networks VPN client and MASQ help

Post by Roger Lonsberr » Tue, 28 Sep 1999 04:00:00



I'm relatively new to this, so hopefully someone else has made it work...


network uses local IP addresses (198.162.0.x), and I have linux set up to
masquerade the internal class C sub-net.  And it all actually works okay!

But I use a Bay Networks VPN client for work.  It workes fine on my Win98
machine if I take the linux box out of the mix, but I'm having a problem
forwarding the VPN stuff.  My IS guy says the VPN client uses the IPsec ESP
protocol, which is supposedly MASQable, but that he doesn't know how to
configure linux to forward it.

Has anyone made this work?  It would sure make my home-office life a lot
easier...

Any responses greatly  appreciated!
-Roger

1. Bay Networks VPN Client (on NT) through Masq - anyone try?

I've got IP Masq'ing set up but I need to know whether Bay Networks
VPN works through ipchains-style masquerading (not HOW, necessarily--I
assume if it's possible, there's documentation out there).  I'm
encouraged by the fact that it does work through SyGate on an NT
server (which works on the same principle as IP masquerading).

Thanks for any advance knowledge ;-)

P.S. John Hardin - I already tried your ftp link, it didn't work :-(
