VPN behind masquerading firewall 1.Opre7

[Marcel de Vries]

Dear Guus,

I have tried hard to fix this problem without any luck.
First I don't understand how I can expand netmask x.x.x.x/32.
I thought 32 bits is the maximum.
Second I added to the routing tabel (SuSe Linux):

route add -net 10.69.189.132 netmask 255.255.255.255 dev tap0

than you get in the routing table:

Destination		gateway   Genmask		   Flags Metric Ref Use Iface  
10.69.189.132       *	    255.255.255.255  UH    0      0     0  tap0

I don't know how I can put the name "test-vpn" in the routing table.
Please help!!
They expect me to have it done by now and still not working.
It drives me a little bit crazy.

Greetings
Marcel de Vries.

Yes,

The "netmask 255.255.0.0" part makes no sense.
It should be port, not posrt.

This tells your computer that 10.69.189.132/32 should go to tap0.
However, you should also make sure that 10.69.189.134/32 is sent to
tap0. You can either expand the netmask or add an extra route for
10.69.189.134 to tap0.
