AT&T business account with VPN (IPSec) and linux PPPoE ????

Post by Dr.J » Mon, 09 Jul 2001 11:04:37



Hi all

I have a business account with AT&T to connect my company intrenet
(EnterNet300 for Windows and AT&T Global Dialer, IPSec binds to EnterNet ppp
logical adaptor). Since AT&T does not offer Global Network Dialer client for
Linux, I can't setup VPN from my Linux gateway. AT&T said their global
dialer uses modified IPSec, hard-coded in its Windows client, so that I
could not use linux with its VPN. I am not sure how sure the statement is.
Anyway, is there anyone has successfully, or knows how-to, setup linux
connection through AT&T VPN business account? I have to disconnect ADSL
connection from my linux and use Windows clients for VPN.

Thanks

Dr.J

Hi,
I have a similar situation that I am currently working thru.
This url has a nice firewall  howto that shows some VPN patches to a 2.2
kernel
http://home.austin.rr.com/rcbrown/firewall/
It is not the full freeswan.org IPSec distribution , just an extra port
forwarding arrangement to get IPSec packets routed without butchering them.
I have not got it to work yet. I am stuck at figureing out what the IP_MASQ
default protocol should be.

1. pppoe & static ips & sbc business dsl

Hello-

I built a firewall/nat for a non-profit awhile back. Their DSL
connection was just basic SBC/Yahoo DSL. They are now talking about
upgrading to a SBC Business DSL package. I called SBC technical support
to ask if their business packages which comes with 5 static ips still
uses pppoe. The response I got from SBC is that some packages do and
some don't. If a particular package doesn't use pppoe, I'll have no
problems. I'm not sure where to begin if I get 5 static ips and have to
use pppoe. I have no way to test ahead of time. Anyone dealt with this
problem before? I guessing - would you edit /etc/ppp/options, remove
noipdefault and add local xx.xx.xx.xx. yy.yy.yy.yy etc.? Maybe
/etc/ppp/chaps-secret, /etc/ppp/paps-secret and edit the 4th column?

thanks,
Melvin
