[pptp-server] pinging problem

[George Vieira]

Oh I get it.. the typo in your first post confused me (192.168.1.4.6 etc...)
 
This is what you need to check...
 
The pptp client, type netstat -rn (that's R N and not M) and check if the
client has a route for the whole network... probably not.. this is your main
problem..
 
If your not sure type this in MSDOS:
 
route add -p 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.241
 
this will tell the client VPN that to get to the whole network of
192.168.1.X to go via 192.168.1.241 (VPN server)..
 
 
try that...

NO............. 
i have two ethernet cards and eth0 has the ip address 192.168.1.149 
and the eth1 has 192.168.4.6 
192.168.1.246 is PPP local ip

Um, If I'm reading this right you have 2 ethernet cards ETH0 and ETH1 and
BOTH are on the same subnet (192.168.1.149 , 192.168.1.46?)Isn't this going
to complicate things a bit? How it the client reaching the PPTP server.. I'm
confused...

well......... 
to start with, i have a win98 client.
he connects to a RAS over PPP
RAS gives him 192.168.4.2 and himself has the address 192.168.4.10
and beyond him, i have a pptp server with eth1 address 192.168.1.4.6
he assigns 192.168.1.246 to the client and himself gets 192.168.1.241.
i find the message "found eth0 for proxy arp" in /var/log/messages.
and the eth0 address is 192.168.1.149
but still the win98 client is not able to ping any ip address beyond 149.
any ideas........?
