   All,   
      
   I am trying to connect windows clients to a linux box running poptop   
   behind a firewall   
      
      
   The client system has a public internet address.   
   The firewall has a public and an internal address 10.0.0.1   
   The internal server has the ipaddress 10.0.0.160.   
   The poptop server assigns an ip adress in a range within the 10.0.0.x   
   Everything works fine, except that the client can only contact the   
   10.0.0.160, but it cannot reach other machines in the private network.   
      
   This is quite logical, as the other private machines don't know they   
   need to send packets for the pptp client to the 10.0.0.160 machine, so   
   even if the poptop server forwards to the private machine, there is no   
   way for it to reply. The firewall acts as a dhcp and gateway for the   
   private network.   
      
   So what do I need to do to enable the poptop server to forward correctly   
   and enable the private machines to reach the pptp client? Can I add some   
   routing on the gateway to send packets intended for any ip address from   
   the pptp range to the poptop server?   
      
   Thnx for any ideas   
      
   D
