Re: [Users] IPSec over PPPoE

They use PPPoE (really sux!), and I am having a hell of a time getting
FreeS/WAN to function over this link. I just moved and have to get this
going. I had a permanent tunnel to work before using my old ISP
(speakeasy - they're great!) no problems at all. Can anyone point me at
some good documentation about how to get this up and running?

I've had success running FreeS/WAN over PPPoE using the Dachstein-CD
version of LEAF, which includes Roaring Penguin 2.6, pppd 2.3.11, and
FreeS/WAN 1.91. The only change I had to make for FreeS/WAN was to set
interfaces="ipsec0=ppp0 " in ipsec.conf once I got the PPPoE stuff
running.

Keep in mind that it's been reported some ISP's filter IPSec traffic on
"home-user" accounts, and most LEAF systems default firewall rules will
block the required AH / ESP / UDP port 500 traffic, so make sure your
problem's really with FreeS/WAN before banging your head against the
wall too much :-)
