Hi, Having problems with PPP over UDP and ssh. (After reading some material I've decided against using ssh due to possible retransmission problems.) Both systems are 3.3-RELEASE and I'm using the examples from /usr/share/examples/ppp/ppp.conf.span-isp but I'm just using the vpn bits, not the multi-link. What I'm trying to achieve is to create a pipe from one FreeBSD firewall to another, to allow users at one end to telnet to a box inside the other, eg: users --> BSD1 ----> ISP <---- BSD2 (FW) ----- Telnet \___________________________/ target PPP over UDP over PPP I am connected to the ISP (trivial) I start ppp in interactive mode, enter term, wait a few secs, then ~p. The ppp.log starts rolling on BSD2 but then fails, retrys, fails, .... 5 times. The problem seems to be that the client connects OK but then no packets are sent back to the client from the server - all I get is the following message in the ppp.log file (mixed amongst all the rest but this is the crucial line as far as I can tell): Phase: deflink: write (0): Destination address required It trys five times to connect, each time falling over at this point - there's something blatantly obvious that I'm missing here. I can't imagine WHICH destination address it wants - both machines are connected to the same ISP at this point - I'm just stuck (or maybe it's cos it's Friday :) ) Please CC me as I can't handle the volume of this list.
