The VPN works fine for everything but NFS and SMB, and the problem is only in the one direction. This would indicate that the firewall is passing all that's necessary for the vpn to operate. Also, there are no firewall rules applied to the vpn traffic. My firewall runs IPTables on Red Hat 7.3 and the firewall rules allow ICMP from the outside world. If anyone is interested, I could send some Ethereal dumps of the situation. tnx jk -- Message sent by the [email protected] mailing list.
