natd handles pptp. we have multiple clients who are NATed and they connect to different pptp gateways (occasionally the same too). if you are running a poptop pptp server and you want multiple clients connecting to this one pptp server; make sure you get the GRE ID update (poptop always sets the id to 0 - messes up two connections). make sure you divert gre packets on their way out as well. - sten _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
