Hi,

I'm trying to connect a windows XP client to a remote pptp server. I'm using
windows XP at home on my home network which connects to the internet via a
fedora linux firewall using iptables with nat.

What iptables rules do I need to insert to allow this to happen. I guess I
just need to forward packets.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Dan

Hi Dan!

Check out 48.5 in the webpage referenced below:

http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~dranch/LINUX/TrinityOS/cHTML/TrinityOS-c-48.html

In Ubuntu Breezy, BTW, the ppp files are .ko rather than .o if you get into wanting to run it in Linux.

Enjoy!
