Tried to install pptp vpn server via webmin, and I tried connecting remotely from my laptop, but it keeps failing on the verify username and password - I get a error 778 it was not possible to verify the identity of the server. Not sure what could be wrong with the config..
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to connect to a Microsoft ISA PPTP server from my Linux box. The box I'm connecting from is itself a router. I have no problem connecting a Windows XP machine to the VPN via this machine. This is fine, but I would rather connect via the Linux machine, giving me far more advanced routing options (i.e. no to send every packet from the XP box completely unnecessarily via the PPTP tunnel). The Linux router is running Debian Lenny.
I've checked iptables. There were initially some issues. I've fixed those.
Invoking pppd from the console, I can see that authentication succeeds, but then some negotiation goes wrong and the server terminates the connection. Here's the output from pppd, with the more sensitive stuff removed:
Code:
<hostname>:~# pppd call <peer> nodetach debug
using channel 19
Using interface ppp0
Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/2

I am trying to connect to a PPTP VPN at work, and I cannot accomplish that. Both server and client are using Ubuntu 10.10.

i have a VPN server PPTPD on Centos 5.3
eth0: 62.2.2.x (public on the internet)
GW: 62.2.2.1 (cisco router)
i want to configure my ppptp server to allow users access internet with their own public ips of class 62.2.3.0 62.2.4.0 62.2.5.0
every time i configure my server all users can get thier IPs but they only go out with my server IP same as NAT not routing.
can you show me the proper configuration to make my users connect with public IP and have internet access. use specific DNS ( i did this but some users can not brows by DNS)
is there any way to specify an expired date for each pptp user.
Running Ubuntu 11.04 Server 32bit fresh install
I did this walk-through trying both iptables and ufw
I am able to connect to my VPN server using both windows 7 and Ubuntu desktop just fine, and using wireshark verify that all packets are being compressed and sent through the VPN tunnel.
Many sites work but there are several that will not load while using the VPN, one of them is ubuntu forums also sourceforge.
I can ping the servers while connected but the websites just will not load, and time out. The second I disconnect from the VPN they load instantly.
I have been wanting to switch from my routers VPN to my headless linux box VPN. I have everything setup in the PPTP and then forwarded the ports to it. Heres the kicker. My APPLE Iphone connects to the VPN without a problem at all. Views Intranet pages etc.
My Windoz XP is kicking and screaming and one error after another. This is my setup on XP: I entered Ip Entered exact same credentials as used for connecting with my iphone turned off "use gateway on remote network" Changed type to PPTP VPN connecting my xp machine to this PPTP server on linux?
I've got a FC PPTP server up and running but can't connect to it using VPN. I'm using NetworkManager but the connection fails each time. On the server, I'm seeing the following in the /var/log/messages:

I'm trying to get a pptp server up and running. The server starts just fine, but encounters errors when a client tries to connect.

I assume the failed read line is the culprit. I am currently running on a test machine. There is no firewall. I read on this error points to a firewall misconfiguration, but there isn't one.
I'm trying to use a vpn server which uses pptp. I've set up pptp as per the Debian Howto and it seems to be working, but I'm not actually acessing the net via the server.Not sure what info would be useful but here are route -n and ifconfig.Can anyone suggest what is wrong here, and how to test if the vpn link is actually working?

I'm running an own PPTP Server, but I can't get it to access the internet. All my PCs at home run in the 192.168.0.0/24 net, the PPTP Server has local IP192.168.0.5 and remote IP 192.168.0.80-99. The router to the internet is at 192.168.0.1, and the IP of eth0 on the machine where the pptpd runs is 192.168.0.4. I want to be able to connect to the internet trough that VPN and access my local LAN servers (which works fine so far). I can ping internet and local IPs successfully, but can not access them with a browser, or connect to them in any other way. I have 'accepted' all in/output and forwards.
I am running a Squid proxy on the same machine, and if I do:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -j REDIRECT -i ppp0 -s 192.168.0.0/24 -p tcp --dport 80 --to-port 3128
I can access the internet through Squid, but of course Jabber/ICQ etc. Won't work then because it just refers port 80. But I want the PPTP Clients to connect to the internet directly, if I don't use that rule it's not possible to load any pages. But pinging works all the time. DNS is also working fine, but I can't even access webpages via IP directly. How can I allow the PPTP IPs 192.168.0.80-99 to get direct access to the Internet with Iptables?
I have recently downloaded and installed apache2 http server from tarball source (i'm running ubuntu but i think its more fun to use tarballs i don't know why but its how i am) anyway i just installed apache2 and when i go into the servers section of webmin and click on apache web server i get this message:
The Apache server executable /usr/local/apache2/conf/ does not exist. If you have Apache installed, adjust the module configuration to use the correct path. and when i go to the configuration menu i don't understand a word of it.
I am trying to connect to a windows 2000 VPN server at work, with my current settings in DOES connect to the VPN and i can ping the domain server which is 10.1.1.2 but the first issue is i cannot ping the other computers on the network(via hostnames) can't remember the ip address of the other machines . second issue is when the connection is established and i RDP into 10.1.1.2 ok great i am connected to the server but any interaction in the RDP session even moving the mouse on the screen kills the session and the VPN connection fails.

I am trying to connect to our work server (windows), however, without succes In the log I get the message: "Failed to parse server response"
And when I close the vpn connection window I get "there were no valid vpn secrets"
I Use F10 with xfce on an aspire one.
recently i rent a xen vps intended to setup a PPTPD vpn server for me and my friends. so we can by-pass the great firewall in china and get back on ....., facebook and stuff. i have already setup the server and i can connect to it without any problem. but i still want to do some further configuration the server:
1. i want to limit the bandwidth to 400k/s per connection.
2. i also want to limit the max connection per user a/c
i have some thoughts on the 2nd requirement. in the user configuration file of /etc/ppp/chap-secret, you can specify the range of ip the user can get, does it limit the max connection per user a/c? or they can connect anyway, just every now and then a box pop up says conflict in IP address?

I encountered a a dependency issue when trying to install Webmin on Ubuntu Server Edition 10.04 Beta1.
When you try to install webmin, libmd5-perl is not available in any of the lucid repositories:
I resolved the dependency prob by adding the following repository to my /etc/apt/sources.list: deb [url]
Then I did a sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install and libmd5-perl installed fine along with webadmin. BTW. I got a GPG error when doing a apt=get update because I did not import the public key for the debian repos I used to get libdm5-perl, which doesn't matter to me as I commented out the repos once I got libmd5-perl installed.
I have had webmin running previously but i just recently installed Unbuntu server and i am now trying to install webmin. after typing this to install webmin sudo apt-get install webmin it started doing its thing and then it halts.
Giving me the following message: "Package webmin is not available, but is referred to by another package. this may mean that the package is missing, had been obsoleted , or is only available from another source."
The first thing i did after installing webmin was edit the sources.list
Then i tpyed sudo nano sources.list I uncommented everything with "deb" in front of it
I also uncommented
deb cdrom:
I then typed this sudo wget [url]
After getting that i typed this apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl libmd5-perl
Then i tryed to install it and got that error.
I also tryed install it using this tutorial [url]
When i got to the part when i need to type
sudo apt-get install update this is what happened

View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed OpenSSH via tasksel and am using Webmin for administration. I'd like to be able to SSH externally and want to setup the necessary public/private keys to use in FileZilla.
In Webmin, under Servers > SSH Server I can click 'Host Keys' and see an RSA key. Is this the public or private key for my server? Do I need to copy this into a text file to import it into FileZilla on my remote PC (that I want to connect from)? Is that all that needs to be done (aside from opening the port on my router/firewall)?
Is there an automated way to set this up via Webmin?
