I have a FreeBSD firewall running at home with natd and ipfw. I want to connect up to my home network with a vpn. However, I am behind a firewall and only have a 192.168.1.x address, so I cannot use gifconfig to setup a vpn from one address to the other as described at this URL: http://rr.sans.org/firewall/IPSec_VPN.php Actually, I don't want to connect up two lans at this point, I want to connect to my home network with my laptop so that I can use my email and news server as I have set up at home. What do I need to do to get connected to my network via vpn while my laptop is behind a firewall? Can I do what I want merely with ssh? Any help appreciated. fybar _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
