[pptp-server] More pptp connections?

[Ka Kit Yick]

I'm actually making test for multisession pptp connection via a NAT device
(Winroute and Nexland) and it's not working at all for me. I'm using SuSE
Linux 7.2, pppd 2.4.0 and poptop v.1.1.2.

The Nat device (Nexland) is connected to the net and share the internet
connection with the others behind it. For the internet, it works very well.
If I make a pptp connection to my remote serveur, it works also, but when I
try to connect a second one, these are the errors I got on the server :

ct 15 10:33:21 cdrhpnq pptpd[3157]: Discarding out-of-order packet 5,
already have 77

already have 84
Oct 15 10:33:27 cdrhpnq pptpd[3668]: Discarding out-of-order packet 9,

It seems that poptop can't deal with pptp connections behind nat device. I
talk with technical support of Nexland (www.nexland.com) and they told me
the it work with a MS PPTP server. So it there any patch or other linux pptp
server that support multiple pptp sessions behind a nat device?

thanks

Hi,

First thanks for the how-to. It really helped, now VPN is working and
I have no probles with it so far. But, I tested it from only one
client computer and somewhere I have read that there is a problem
with more concurrent connections, that this is not supported. Now the
question is what exactly will happen, when someone will try to use
VPN while another client si already working there. Will it be just
rejected? If not, can it mess up something (file ...)?

Thanks

Marek
