VPN Client in fedora 8 for Microsoft VPN server: routing problem?

[Zvi Kave]

Hi,

I can not access the required IP behind the MS server.
Seems that the VPN PPTP connection to MS  PPTP server is OK as from the
/var/log/messages, but I can not access the required IP behind the MS
server.
(But from Windows XP , I have no problems to connect to desired IP)

Here are the details:

1. Before starting my netstat -r

(1.1.1.0 is my local network)

Destination       Gateway         Genmask                Flags    MSS 
Window  irtt Iface
1.1.1.0               0.0.0.0           255.255.255.0       U           0 
0                0 eth0
192.168.122.0   0.0.0.0           255.255.255.0       U           0        0 
0 virbr0
169.254.0.0       0.0.0.0           255.255.0.0           U           0 
0                0 eth0
0.0.0.0               1.1.1.254       0.0.0.0                   UG        0 
0                0 eth0

After command: pppd call vpn1
I got the following messages in /var/log/messages

Jul 22 14:21:14 razleefs pppd[2898]: pppd 2.4.4 started by root, uid 0

Jul 22 14:21:23 razleefs pppd[2898]: secondary DNS address 192.168.0.5

I understand that it means that connection is ready.

netstat -r is now:

Destination       Gateway         Genmask                Flags    MSS 
Window  irtt Iface
192.168.10.12   0.0.0.0           255.255.255.255   UH        0        0

0                0 eth0
192.168.122.0   0.0.0.0           255.255.255.0       U           0        0

0                0 eth0
0.0.0.0               1.1.1.254       0.0.0.0                   UG        0 
0                0 eth0

I need now to get connection to IP 172.25.9.64 behind the Windows VPN
server.
I understand that I can not do it without some route commands.

I tried the suggested commands in vain:
route add -net 192.168.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp0
route add -net 172.25.9.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp0

Now I tried ping 172.25.9.64 but it hanged up,
and I got the message:
ping 172.25.9.64
PING 172.25.9.64 (172.25.9.64) 56(84) bytes of data.
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted

telnet 172.25.9.64   hangs up

I am looking for correct route commands to make it working.

Regards,

Zvi
