Hi Mos,
I found a fix for this.

On Mac OSX under advanced settings there is an option to untick. this works for me!

Awesome Mos. It works!!
 One more thing. once connected all traffic in client goes through the tunnel. However in my setup I have a file server behind the VPN gateway (samba - 192.168.4.14). I only want traffic destined to 192.168.4.14 sent via the tunnel. do you know how it can be done. I think you need to add a route on top of the ppp connection ? 


thanks man!

Hello John,

VPN Properties -> Security ->
Type : L2TP/IPSec
Advanced settings -> Set the preshared key


Allow these protocols : mschap-v2

This is working fine for me on win 7.

Hello,

try the following conn  :

conn L2TP-VPN
       authby=psk
       compress=no
       keyexchange=ikev1
       pfs=no
       rekey=no
       type=transport
       left=203.143.22.43






       leftnexthop=203.143.22.43
       leftprotoport=17/1701
       right=%any
       rightprotoport=17/%any
       rightsubnetwithin=0.0.0.0/0
       auto=start





Regards,


Mos

Hi All,
My ipsec.conf is as below and using strongSwan 4.5.0 IPsec and Xl2tpd on ubuntu 10.04
config setup        nat_traversal=yes        plutostart=yes





        charonstart=yes
conn L2TP-VPN        type=transport        keyexchange=ikev1        keyingtries=3        authby=psk        pfs=no





        rekey=no        left=203.143.22.43        leftnexthop=%defaultroute        leftprotoport=17/1701        right=%any        rightprotoport=17/%any





        rightsubnetwithin=0.0.0.0/0        auto=add
My issue is that my Windows XP works fine with this setup but I cannot get Windows 7 or Apple iPhone to work with this setup. Please let me know what i did wrong.






Thanks
