ipsec and dynamic IP ?
« on: August 24, 2008, 05:30:19 AM »
The howto about ipsec refers to static ip. Can this work with 2 ADSL dynamic IP?
Anybody tried this ?

No, it does not work. Both ends need to have static IPs.

If the server has a fixed address behind a ADSL router, does it comply ?

Thanks!

Still a No.
Can't have NAT, this is deep packet inspection.
Sorry.
OpenVPN?

Thanks stuntshell.

I already have smeserver-openvpn-bridge-fws installed but I need server-to-server.

I'll keep on searching around openvpn...
