View 1 Replies View RelatedHello, I've installed OpenSwan with xl2tpd on my server, and set it up for roadwarriors connecting using certificates.
My server is Debian 5.0.8, I am running xl2tpd 1.2.0, and Openswan IPsec 2.4.12, my clients are all Windows, and I am testing my setup on a Windows 7 client.
I have no problem connecting to the server, but after some time the connection drops. I removed the idle option from the ppp config but it does not make any difference.
Even when I create constant traffic with ping -t the connection drops also.
I have no problems reconnecting right away.
I have been hacking at this for a couple of days, reading every post I can find, but I have not found a solution to my problem.
Here are my configs and logs:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been fighting to get my wireless working and I've finally made some progress. I can actually manage to connect to my wireless network and so far it has been quite stable (fingers crossed).
However there is one slight nag. My wlan0 interface driver refuses to start at startup. When I type iwconfig its just not there. To fix this I have to manually run "rmmod rtl8187" and then "modprobe rtl8187". Then it works fine.
I've been trying to make a script to automate this but without success. I've tried both editing my rc.local and kde startup .xinitrc
How I could get those two commands to run automatically at startup after the boot process? I'm running Arch Linux and KDE 4.3
Anyone know a manual for openswan on centos?I found this but all the filenames and such are different and although I've got quite far through the process, it's confusing when conf files are in dofferent places, etc.

I just started setting up a linux box in the office...I have some experience with ssh commands but not setting up a linux system and stuff.The box is connected to our network but I have no clue how to make windows & osx talk with it. How can I go by doing that and also setting up an apache server to be able to connect through network. Right now I have apache/linux/mysql running it works when i go to localhost, but I would also like to let all the computers in office to access it. I would guess that will deal with virtual host which I know how to setup. I just need to setup an IP.

I use Network Manager to create an Ad-Hoc setup, no security, dhcp, all the simple stuff. Theres just no button or anything to connect to it The internet guide i found said create the network and then use network manager to "connect to a hidden network".

Not sure this is correct place, but I think it's related to network. I'm using CentOS 5. I installed nscd successfully using yum. But I can't start nscd. It shows [ OK ], but stop right away, and I can't found any nscd process.

I'm running Fedora 12, up to date via yum, with kernel.org kernel 2.6.32.2. I think I must be missing something obvious, but I thought I'd ask if anyone else has this working before beating on it for too much longer.
I've been able to get a laptop on Fedora 14 (2.6.35.6-48) working with a Netgear WNA1100 Once up and running, I execute "ifconfig wlan0 up" from root, and everything connects just fine and is stable as long as I stay logged in. But, I haven't found how to do this automatically on boot.
I've tried to use NetworkManager, but I cannot figure out how to get the GUI to show up - it says its running and enabled in the Services gui, but I haven't figured out how to actually use it! I checked to see if the nm-applet is running with ps, and for the user login, I see:
I'm not sure if the "sm-disable" flag is my problem, or how to change it. I'm not even sure if NetworkManager will allow me to set things up for bootup, but that is the path I ran down...
I assume this is a fundamentally easy process to set this up on bootup, but I'm not stumbling across the method. I recall doing this kind of thing years ago when I was an engineer, and before I got my lobotomy to become a manager...
I upgraded from F14 to F15 using the DVD. The network worked fine after the upgrade.This morning I updated to the latest RPMs and rebooted, and now the network donot work!ifconfig shows only the lo interface.

Since the upgrade, I'm not able to establish a VPN connection to my institute (a problem since outgoing mail REQUIRES a VPN connection) The pull down menu shows the connection as an option, but clicking on it brings up a separate window that simply says "The VPN connection CfA failed because the VPN Service failed to start." Never had this issue under Hardy, so not sure what's going on. Under "Configure VPN" the settings look the same as they always did.

I've got a couple of nagging issues that may or may not be related to each other. First, although I have this machine set to log me on automatically (I'm the only user ever and there's no public access) it doesn't; I get the standard login welcome screen. In the system menu (from Applications) I have two login managers: "Login Screen" and "Login Screen (GDM2)". The first of these shows I'm configured for automatic login, as does the custom.conf file in /etc/gdm. However when I click its "unlock" button, it flashes orange momentarily but nothing else happens. The second manager doesn't seem to have any effect on the problem...
The other issue is that my networking fails to start during boot-up; I'm not using the network manager applet and am not starting it; instead I have the three NICs in the machine (which serves as the router and gateway for my LAN) configured in /etc/network/interfaces. Once I am logged in, I can run "sudo service networking start" from a Terminal window and everything works properly, but adding that same line to /etc/rc.local (minus the "sudo" of course) had no effect on the problem. Both issues happen only at boot time, and since this machine normally runs 24/7 except immediately after certain updates or when troubleshooting they're not show-stoppers, but I greatly prefer to have my systems working the way I've configured them rather than going off in other directions!
