Hello,
I have two Linux servers running the latest AS Redhat.
My VPN server is a basic Windows 2003 machine, supporting pptp, (I don't have certificate installed yet for l2tp)
Client machine is Windows XP.
All patches/updates have been applied to all machines.
These machines are all running on the same departmental level subnet.
Client attaches to VPN without issue, makes pptp connection, and I can see all windows based resources on the local network. I can ping other windows machines, I can connect to shares, I can access web pages which are ordinarily blocked by the firewall...
With the exception of my two Linux machines.
two linux machines, I can do the same from any local windows client.
servers/clients.
However, I cannot ping the VPN client from the linux machines (I can ping, and as I write this, I am connected to the VPN client via remote desktop, from this local machine), nor can I pull up the web page hosted on the linux machine.
Now here it gets even worse.
If I connect to the main campus VPN connection, then I CAN see the web page hosted on the linux machines (I cannot ping though, as ICMP is blocked at our department firewall...)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
