VPN beginner -- help!
I had a working 2.1 system with vpn, blah blah blah... The system's hard drive
died.
So I dounloaded 2.2R7 and installed it. Now I'm trying to get VPN to work, and
I'm horrifically confused by all the documentation out there without simple
instructions.
What we have: a linux box doing masquerading. A win2k computer in our house
(behind masq) trying to connect to the workplace.
many sets of documentation indicate that support for this was added to the
kernel, and I shouldn't need to do any patching, etc. Is this true? Am I
missing the correct modules to add?
Or do I need to recompile the kernel? Or even patch it?
I'd like to do this with as little effort as possible-- I know that I had a
horribly messy system previously because of my lack of knowledge on the proper
process of compiling/installing kernel (when modules were added, I got lost.)
And I'd like to avoid that happening again.
So, basically I'm pleading ignorance, and hoping to find some simpler
documentation that is directly applicable to a newly installed 2.2r7 debian
system is available somewhere.
Thanks in advance,
Mike
