RE: rp-l2tpd iptables and rh9 but no google

["Rob Verduijn" <rverduij@dds.nl>]

Hi again,

I've set my MTU on eth0 eth1 and ppp0 to 1472
Ive been playing around with tcpdump
I gave the following command
tcpdump -i ppp0 -w dumptcp
When I surf to www.redhat.com everything goes wel and I get all kinda output
in my file
But when I surf to google I get nothing, no output whatsoever.
Did I give in the wrong syntax?

Regards
Rob

You may have look to the MTU, with encapsulation in L2TP you loose some
bytes.
To test try increase your ping size with the -s option.

If it is working with -s 1500 then try to look at tcpmss.
