GRE, VPN and suchlike
Thank you, Brendan,
This is a good starting point.
But will this package implement GRE (port 47) ? Just because I need to
install the Linmux box as a firewall.
In fact it is already a fw. What I need is just to make VPN encapsulated
packets to go through the firewall to the VPN server which is located
in the inside LAN.
And do I need samba ? I want to keep my Debian fw with as few daemons as
possible, as you can guess ;-)
Anyway THANK YOU for your help !
Greg
