Re: Adding a new route

3) When connecting via pptpconfig, I authenticate but the same default
gw is there. So:

original dhcp gw: 10.101.44.1

pptp needs to have some way to get packets to the network at the other
end, so you need to keep this entry.

vpn gw I need to use sometimes: 192.168.2.101
What network do you need to contact?

You really need to give us more information. Post the output of "route
-n" before and after starting pptp, and tell us a bit more about the VPN.

To the other poster, I tried:

route add -net 192.168.2.101 netmask 255.255.255.255 dev eth0

But still had the same problem - I can't 'ping 192.168.2.93' .

Before:

/root> route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use
Iface
10.101.40.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.248.0 U 0 0 0
eth0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0
eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0
lo
0.0.0.0 10.101.45.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0
eth0

After pptpconfig (24.199.x.x of course fictitious) :

/root> route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use
Iface
24.199.x.x 10.101.45.1 255.255.255.255 UGH 0 0 0
eth0
192.168.2.101 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0
ppp0
10.101.40.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.248.0 U 0 0 0
eth0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0
eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0
lo
0.0.0.0 10.101.45.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0
eth0

Still can't 'ping 192.168.2.93' . The only way I can ping so far is
by:

linux(root)]
/root> route del default gw 10.101.45.1
[linux(root)]
/root> route add default gw 192.168.2.101

The only info I have on the vpn is its microsoft. Thanks for any help,
Robert
