Hi all, I recently upgraded from 4.0-RELEASE to 4.1.1-STABLE and discovered that my natd no longer needs a -pptpalias flag on it. Before the change I used this pptpalias flag to enable my machines behind my bsd box to use a VPN to work (one at a time): natd -l -u -m -s -pptpalias 10.0.0.100 -interface de0 I read a couple of things about changes in libalias that make this pptpalias flag unneeded -- apparently the library can figure it out on its own now(?). So after my upgrade I simply omitted the -pptpalias flag and was able to connect and authenticate to a VPN server without problems using: natd -l -u -m -s -interface de0 But, unfortunately, my connection stopped working normally after the initial connection. I am able to ping the server on the other end of the VPN connection... but not contact DNS or WINS servers across the VPN. In addition the connection statistics looked like I was sending out a lot more data than I was receiving... when usually the inverse is true. I don't know much about GRE or MS-PPTP but I recall something about GRE packets not having proper to addresses on them and natd needing help to deliver them (thus the pptpalias flag). So I tried this: natd -l -u -m -s -redirect_proto gre 10.0.0.100 -interface de0 ...but it doesn't work either. Can someone give me a hand getting my behind-the-server clients connecting to a corporate (MS) VPN server again? Much appreciated...
