Subject: PPTP server behind NAT

Message-ID: <blamm8$bvm$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)

Hi,

i'm not using the pptp-conntrack patch yet. So i tried to forward port 
1723 and protocol 47 to the target machine. That's is what should work - 
but it didn't.

A tcpdump revealed that my Linux box rejected the GRE packets with "icmp 
protocol 47 unreachable" packets. What did i do wrong?

I turned of my whole firewall and flushed all tables.
The rules

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dp 1723 -j DNAT --to <ip>
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p 47 -j DNAT --to <ip>

simply didn't work.
My Linux box keeps sending the icmp packets.

Does anybody know why it does that?

Thx
   Sven
