Re: Trying to telnet and ping through a bsd gateway fails

[Nick <nagray@austin.rr.com>]

I can tell I am tire of this problem. After I sent the message I realized 
why without the original vpn structure in place I can't ping  (or anything 
else for that matter) from one private subnet to the other.

So I looked at it again and put the vpn back in place. I am using a script 
to setup the vpn. This is similar to the one that is included (If my memory 
serves)


I am now using my windows box as a client on the inside of the .35 network 
(192.168.35.4) and pinging the inside address of the gateway (192.168.30.2)

192.168.35.4<-->192.168.35.51/24.27.15.30<--Internet-->24.242.137.194/192.168.30.2

Pinging 192.168.30.2 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 192.168.30.2: bytes=32 time=121ms TTL=254
Reply from 192.168.30.2: bytes=32 time=50ms TTL=254
Reply from 192.168.30.2: bytes=32 time=60ms TTL=254
Reply from 192.168.30.2: bytes=32 time=100ms TTL=254

Ping statistics for 192.168.30.2:
     Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
     Minimum = 50ms, Maximum =  121ms, Average =  82ms

As you can see this works. This was done in a DOS box.

trying a tracert from the same box does this

C:\>tracert 192.168.30.2

Tracing route to 192.168.30.2 over a maximum of 30 hops

   1   <10 ms   <10 ms   <10 ms  192.168.35.51
   2   141 ms    20 ms    30 ms  192.168.30.2

Trace complete.

Looks good so far, now the problem.

If I try to run telnet from the DOS box (192.168.35.4-->192.168.30.2) it 
goes into never (return) land.
I bring up telnet client and attempt to telnet to the secure side 
(192.168.35.4-->192.168.35.51) no return.
I bring up telnet client and attempt to telnet to the other secure side 
(192.168.35.4-->192.168.30.2) no return.

My boss has a theory about it having something to do with named services. 
Strangely enough I swear it worked last week.

Thanks 10^6 for any assistance.
