<h4>NOTE: I am no longer attempting to maintain MPPE patches for current Linux
kernel's and pppd. I recommend that you refer to the following URLs for information
about installing MPPE into your kernel and pppd.</h4>

<h2 align="center"><a name="ServerFW"></a>1. PPTP Server Running on your Firewall</h2>
<p>I will try to give you an idea of how to set up a PPTP server on your firewall
system. This isn't a detailed HOWTO but rather an example of how I have set
up a working PPTP server on my own firewall.</p>
<p>The steps involved are:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="#PatchPppd">Patching and building pppd</a></li>
<li><a href="#PatchKernel">Patching and building your Kernel</a></li>
<li><a href="#Samba">Configuring Samba</a></li>
<li><a href="#ConfigPppd">Configuring pppd</a></li>
<li><a href="#ConfigPptpd">Configuring pptpd</a></li>
<li><a href="#ConfigFw">Configuring Shorewall</a></li>
</ol>
<h3><a name="PatchPppd"></a>Patching and Building pppd</h3>
<p>To run pppd on a 2.4 kernel, you need the pppd 2.4.1 or later. The primary
site for releases of pppd is <a href="ftp://ftp.samba.org/pub/ppp">ftp://ftp.samba.org/pub/ppp</a>.</p>
<p>You will need the following patches:</p>
<ul>
<li> <a
href="http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/pptp/ppp-2.4.1-openssl-0.9.6-mppe-patch.gz">http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/pptp/ppp-2.4.1-openssl-0.9.6-mppe-patch.gz</a></li>
<li><a
href="http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/pptp/ppp-2.4.1-MSCHAPv2-fix.patch.gz">http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/pptp/ppp-2.4.1-MSCHAPv2-fix.patch.gz</a></li>
</ul>
<p>You may also want the following patch if you want to require remote hosts
to use encryption:</p>
<ul>
<li><a
href="ftp://ftp.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/pptp/require-mppe.diff">ftp://ftp.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/pptp/require-mppe.diff</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Un-tar the pppd source and uncompress the patches into one directory (the
patches and the ppp-2.4.1 directory are all in a single parent directory):</p>
<ul>
<li>cd ppp-2.4.1</li>
<li>patch -p1 &lt; ../ppp-2.4.0-openssl-0.9.6-mppe.patch</li>
<li>patch -p1 &lt; ../ppp-2.4.1-MSCHAPv2-fix.patch</li>
<li>(Optional) patch -p1 &lt; ../require-mppe.diff</li>
<li>./configure</li>
<li>make</li>
</ul>
<p>You will need to install the resulting binary on your firewall system.
To do that, I NFS mount my source filesystem and use "make install" from
the ppp-2.4.1 directory.</p>
<h3><a name="PatchKernel"></a>Patching and Building your Kernel</h3>
<p>You will need one of the following patches depending on your kernel version:</p>
<ul>
<li> <a
href="http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/pptp/linux-2.4.4-openssl-0.9.6a-mppe-patch.gz">http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/pptp/linux-2.4.4-openssl-0.9.6a-mppe-patch.gz</a></li>
<li> <a
href="http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/pptp/linux-2.4.16-openssl-0.9.6b-mppe-patch.gz">http://www.shorewall/net/pub/shorewall/pptp/linux-2.4.16-openssl-0.9.6b-mppe-patch.gz</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Uncompress the patch into the same directory where your top-level kernel
source is located and:</p>
<ul>
<li>cd &lt;your GNU/Linux source top-level directory&gt;</li>
<li>patch -p1 &lt; ../linux-2.4.16-openssl-0.9.6b-mppe.patch</li>
</ul>
<p>Now configure your kernel. Here is my ppp configuration:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><img border="0" src="images/ppp.jpg" width="592" height="734">

</blockquote>
<h3><a name="Samba"></a>Configuring Samba</h3>
<p>You will need a WINS server (Samba configured to run as a WINS server is
fine). Global section from /etc/samba/smb.conf on my WINS server (192.168.1.3)
is:</p>
<blockquote>
<pre>[global]<br> workgroup = TDM-NSTOP<br> netbios name = WOOKIE<br> server string = GNU/Linux Box<br> encrypt passwords = Yes<br> log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log<br> max log size = 0<br> socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192<br> os level = 65<br> domain master = True<br> preferred master = True<br> dns proxy = No<br> wins support = Yes<br> printing = lprng<br><br>[homes]<br> comment = Home Directories<br> valid users = %S<br> read only = No<br> create mask = 0664<br> directory mask = 0775<br><br>[printers]<br> comment = All Printers<br> path = /var/spool/samba<br> printable = Yes</pre>
</blockquote>
<h3><a name="ConfigPppd"></a>Configuring pppd</h3>
<p>Here is a copy of my /etc/ppp/options.poptop file:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><font face="Courier" size="2">ipparam PoPToP<br>

</blockquote>
<p>Notes:</p>
<ul>
<li>System 192.168.1.3 acts as a WINS server so I have included that
IP as the 'ms-wins' value.</li>
<li>I have pointed the remote clients at my DNS server -- it has external
address 206.124.146.177.</li>
<li>I am requiring 128-bit stateless compression (my kernel is built
with the 'require-mppe.diff' patch mentioned above.</li>
</ul>
<p>Here's my /etc/ppp/chap-secrets:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><font face="Courier" size="2"> Secrets for authentication using CHAP<br>

TEastep         *         &lt;shhhhhh&gt; 192.168.1.7</font></p>
</blockquote>
<p>I am the only user who connects to the server but I may connect either
with or without a domain being specified. The system I connect from is my
laptop so I give it the same IP address when tunneled in at it has when
I use its wireless LAN card around the house.</p>
<p>You will also want the following in /etc/modules.conf:</p>
<pre> alias ppp-compress-18 ppp_mppe<br> alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp<br> alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate<br> alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate</pre>
<h3><a name="ConfigPptpd"></a>Configuring pptpd</h3>
<p>PoPTop (pptpd) is available from <a href="http://poptop.lineo.com/">http://poptop.lineo.com/</a>.</p>
<p>Here is a copy of my /etc/pptpd.conf file:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><font face="Courier" size="2">option /etc/ppp/options.poptop<br>

</blockquote>
<p>Notes:</p>
<ul>
<li>I specify the /etc/ppp/options.poptop file as my ppp options file
(I have several).</li>
<li>The local IP is the same as my internal interface's (192.168.1.254).</li>
<li>I have assigned a remote IP range that overlaps my local network.
This, together with 'proxyarp' in my /etc/ppp/options.poptop file make
the remote hosts look like they are part of the local subnetwork.</li>
</ul>
<p>I use this file to start/stop pptpd -- I have this in /etc/init.d/pptpd:</p>

<h2 align="center"><a name="ClientsBehind"></a>3. PPTP Clients Running Behind

<p>You shouldn't have to take any special action for this case unless you
wish to connect multiple clients to the same external server. In that case,
you will need to follow the instructions at <a
href="http://www.impsec.org/linux/masquerade/ip_masq_vpn.html">http://www.impsec.org/linux/masquerade/ip_masq_vpn.html</a>.
I recommend that you also add these two lines to your /etc/shorewall/modules

<h2 align="center"><a name="ClientFW"></a>4. PPTP Client Running on your Firewall.</h2>
<p align="left">The PPTP GNU/Linux client is available at <a
href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/pptpclient/">http://sourceforge.net/projects/pptpclient/</a>.   
Rather than use the configuration script that comes with the client, I
built my own. I also build my own kernel <a href="#PatchKernel">as described
above</a> rather than using the mppe package that is available with the
client. My /etc/ppp/options file is mostly unchanged from what came with
the client (see below).</p>
<p>The key elements of this setup are as follows: </p>
<ol>
<li>Define a zone for the remote network accessed via PPTP.</li>
<li>Associate that zone with a ppp interface.</li>
<li>Define rules for PPTP traffic to/from the firewall.</li>
<li>Define rules for traffic two and from the remote zone.</li>

<p>I use the combination of interface and hosts file to define the 'cpq' zone
because I also run a PPTP server on my firewall (see above). Using this
technique allows me to distinguish clients of my own PPTP server from arbitrary
hosts at Compaq; I assign addresses in 192.168.1.0/24 to my PPTP clients
and Compaq doesn't use that RFC1918 Class C subnet. </p>
<p>I use this script in /etc/init.d to control the client. The reason that
I disable ECN when connecting is that the Compaq tunnel servers don't do
ECN yet and reject the initial TCP connection request if I enable ECN :-(

<p>My /etc/ppp/ip-up.local file sets up the routes that I need to route Compaq
traffic through the PPTP tunnel: </p>
<blockquote>
<p><font face="Courier" size="2">#/bin/sh<br>
<br>

    route add -net 16.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 gw $5 $1<br>
    route add -net 130.252.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 gw $5 $1<br>
    route add -net 131.124.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 gw $5 $1<br>
    ...<br>
    ;;<br>
esac</font></p>

<p>Finally, I run the following script every five minutes under crond to
restart the tunnel if it fails:</p>
<pre> #!/bin/sh<br> restart_pptp() {<br> /sbin/service pptp stop<br> sleep 10<br> if /sbin/service pptp start; then<br> /usr/bin/logger "PPTP Restarted"<br> fi<br> }<br><br> if [ -n "`ps ax | grep /usr/sbin/pptp | grep -v grep`" ]; then<br> exit 0<br> fi<br><br> echo "Attempting to restart PPTP"<br><br> restart_pptp &gt; /dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1 &amp;<br></pre>
