Title: VPN, PPTP
Post by: kitten on November 05, 2002, 11:04:50 AM

Hi All,

Does anyone who had setup the SME server as a VPN server behind a broadband router?  I had no success on setting such enviornment.

Can someone kindly share some ideal with me?

Many Thanks.

Put "PPTP Port" into Google.

Haven't tried it that way, but I HAVE used e-smith AS a broadband router and can use PPTP VPN easily.  But it shouldn't be too hard, assuming your router supports port forwarding, to get the correct ports redirected to your SME server.

I am using an Ipcop firewall, on my ADSL line, and have forwarded port 1743 to the SMEServer, and pptp VPN from Windows clients works fine.

cheers
