running a vpn client

[Ken Ford]

You might want to have a look at VPN Masquerade, sounds like it might be
what you are looking for.  I haven't actually used it, so I can't testify to
its functionality.

Hi.

Relatively new linux user - just set up firewall with ip masq to run
multiple boxes on a single cable ip address. Everything is working great
except for one thing:

I need to access a remote vpn server outbound from my lan. I can't get a
connection. i have set an ipfwadm rule to allow inbound tcpip from the vpn
server. It works from the other side of my firewall but not from behind it.

does anyone know how what i need to do to set this up? looked around VPN
stuff for linux but it is all on how to set up server side stuff.

Thanks.

Steve
