Issue getting l2tpns running #2

Hi,

I do not know if anyone is still working on this project, but it seems it is the perfect solution for what i'm trying to setup. And I have some questions about issues setting it up.

What i'm trying to achieve is this:

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::Connects by cellnetwork:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::LAC::::::::::::::::::::::::::::LNS- Cell phone -----------------------------------------------> EPG Provider ------------------------------> L2TPNS -----::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::PPP::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: PPP in L2TP

L2TPNS SERVER + RADIUS (for auth and dhcp) I've installed the server on a centos 6.6, it is running but not answering to the l2tp packets coming in on the server port 1701. The only error I see is this: "tun0: Disabled Privacy Extensions." Selinux is permissive, so its not that. Any ideas why it does not respond to the incoming packets?

If another distro or another way of working is necessary, I'm willing to change ;-)

Thank you very much for any replies!

Kind Regards Halewijn

Edit, it is listening on port 1701:

udp 0 0 x.x.x.x:1701 0.0.0.0:* 1934/l2tpns

I've never used the software to implement a VPN. You might find some useful information in Docs/vpn on setting one up.

Your email suggested that there was a dump and config attached, but I don't see either. I can only suggest checking that your firewall permits 1701/udp and looking at the logs produced by l2tpns. You might need to turn up the logging level.

Note: see also the comments in README.md: other folks are more actively working on this code now than I.
