[Openswan Users] ping works but others applications don't

[RITTER, Philippe]

Hello

I'm sorry to come back with my problem, but what else can I do to have my
VPN working correctly (Running VNC for example ?) ?

You can I use KLIPS ?

Thanks in advance !

Best regards
Philippe RITTER

I tried all of them, but nothing help. Should I try a newer kernel ? Or
openswan 2.3.0 ?

Thanks for you help

Try changing the mtu on the windows box:

Lower the mtu to 1400.

Oh good, it logs the message now. I wonder if the kernel people are now
working on
implementing pmtu for ipsec. I really hope so....

On the openswan gateway you can try:

iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN -j TCPMSS
--clamp-mss-to-pmtu

Or if that fails:

iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN -j TCPMSS --set-mss
1440

Or try using KLIPS instead of NETKEY (but KLIPS currently does not have
NAT-T on the
2.6 kernel)
