Title: pptp authentication
Post by: t1adm on July 12, 2004, 02:40:39 AM

Is it possible to pass authentication requets [ pptp logins ]to a NT Domain controller rather than the e-smith box user database ?

The port forwarding panel in server manager only supports TCP and UDP but it is linux after all and I am sure it can be hacked to do it.
Ipcop has a panel that will allow you to do what you want...

Thanks for the posting reply …  can you install ipcon on a sme box ?

What I realy want to do is pass authentication for pptp users to the NT domain SAM ,

Thanks

Ipcop is a dedicated firewall that must run on it's own box. If that is not possible, then you will have to do some searching on the forums and the web.
The service will have to be stopped on SME and forwarded to NT.

As an experiment, create a portfoward rule in server manager and take note of the changes in /etc/rc.d/init.d/masq

This should give you some idea of how to forward GRE port 47.

Is there someone here that can help or at least give David an angle to start as firewall rules aren't my thing?
