Hi Lee,
It's good to hear you have it working. Now all I have to do is determine
what I've done wrong :-). BTW Chris Buechler's post was from 2003, so maybe
things have changed since then.
In my case there is no connection between site1 and site2. Each is a
separate customer with no relationship to the other. For your own multiple,
simultaneous PPTP connections: they're from different PCs inside your
m0n0wall, right? Let me try my hand at ASCII art (you'll see why I'm not a
famous artist):
site1 site2
| |
the Internet
|
| WAN interface
|
m0n0wall
|
| LAN interface
__|__
| |
PC1 PC2
| |
userA userB
So for your setup, you have successfully had a PPTP connection from PC1 as
client to site1 as server, and simultaneously a PPTP connection from PC2 as
client to site2 as server?
Thanks,
Claude
