[pptp-server] A newbie query ...

[MANOJ KUMAR RANA]

Hi, 
I tried looking into the archieves  for the problem and even reinstalled
the entire list of softwares ... as was there in posting "Ready to help
pptpd newbies" at this mailing list( including upgrading linux kernel
from 2.2.14 to 2.2.17) .... but to no help ??

By now I am able to make the VPN connection ( could see another device 
ppp1 in the 'ifconfig' entry ). But could neither ping to client from
server nor to server from win98 client. 
1. ipchains all permission ALLOWED.


my routing entries are:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use
Iface
203.124.240.35  0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0
ppp0
192.168.0.1     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0
ppp1
163.122.23.0    0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0
eth0
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
0.0.0.0         203.124.240.35  0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0
ppp0

through ppp0 I am connecting to ISP.
And ppp1 is device for VPN connection ends.
eth0 is my local network's (163.122.23.0) connection point


Where should I look from here ... any help?

Anything else required


With Best Regards,

MKR
