They surely get lost - for the PPTP client for Linux is badly broken in this respect. As far as you set a default route to your VPN connection, you send all your packets to the ppp0 interface, which in turn routes them to cable.netvision.net.il, and the route to cable.netvision.net.il is the default route via ppp0, dead loop, period. You must establish DEDICATED route to cable.netvision.net.il via eth0 ( or whatever applicable in your case ) manually, and then set the default route to your PPP over VPN connection. The curious thing is that the PPP/VPN dialer for Windows doesn't suffer from this problem - two clicks and go. BTW, you need no dialer in Windows too - it may all be configured manually. > > How do I set up the correct routing? > > Amir Tal sent me script, but it did not work for me. > > thanks, Geoff.
