IPsec and IPMasq/Proxy
I ran into some trouble using a Debian box as an IP Masq gateway (also
running Squid) to a network which uses a VPN box employing IPsec. The
ISP's tech support said that GNU/Linux was incapable of doing NAT properly
with IPsec and that I'd have to kill the NAT and proxy to make things
work.
I have no experience with IPsec, but this sounded strange. Can anyone
confirm or deny this? I can't understand why a Windows machine can plug
into the net but that GNU/Linux doing Masquerading or using Squid can't do
the same. Could someone whack me with a clue bat? TIA.
