Hi all,
I have 10.6.2 server on the internet. I want to vpn into it to get access. I start VPN and it gives me an address in the range I have set 192.168.2.100-192.168.2.105.
However the server itself does not have a local ip of 192.168.2.x so I cannot ping it or ssh into it or anything.
The machine VPNing gets an ifconfig entry that looks like this:
ppp0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1280
inet 192.168.2.100 --> 70.72.xxx.xxx netmask 0xffffff00
Where I think it should get:
ppp0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1280
inet 192.168.2.100 --> 192.168.2.1 netmask 0xffffff00
I can't find anywhere to set the local vpn IP address. And I can't find a pptpd.conf file either.
Any help is appreciated.
