Hi,

everything is working now. But there are two problems
I do not undestand:

1) I'll have to ping from 10.0.1.X one time into the other
offical net to start the tunnel. If I ping in the other direction 
nothing happens ....

2) After the tunnel is up I can ping (ssh,...) into the 10.0.1.-net
from all other computer (routing is working fine) - but only for 60sec!

Then it stopped -"destination unreachable ...

Any idea ?

Bye, Peer
