Hi,

I have checked all of the previous posts for PPTP setups but I haven't found my solution.

I have configured the Firebox for PPTP as per the manual.

1. Created Trusted Secondary Network of x.x.220.254/24
2. Ensured WINS and DNS servers are listed under Network Configuration
3. Added users to the pptp_users group
4. Amended pptp services for incoming pptp_users to trusted
5. Amended pptp services for outgoing trusted to pptp_users
6. Activated Remote users and created a pool of addresses of x.x.220.0/27.

I'm able to authenticate to the firebox and the user is visible on the front panel page of the system manager showing the ip address of x.x.220.1, but I'm unable to ping any of the servers.

The traffic monitor has entries such as:

firewalld{123]:deny in pptp0 69 udp 20 128 x.x.220.1 x.x.200.60 49785 53 (DNS)

I'm new to these devices and have obviously missed something. Can any one help out?

Cheers

Phil
 
Just a thought for something for you to try. In the policy manager there should be a policy called ping. This is normally set to reject incoming pings. Could this be why you can't ping the servers from the outside?

Spot on! Thanks for your help
