VPN

Hello everyone,

I'm having a bit of a strange problem here: I'm connected to the network of my university from my dorm via a vpn connection. Now I would very much like to share that connection somehow so I don't have to crawl for the cable everytime I want to get my laptop online... (normally it's connected to the main pc) The problem is that they use mutual group authentification and I have no idea how to make the m0n0 connect that way....
I have a fixed IP inside the dorm and then connect to the net using cisco vpn
supposedly vpnc will work too with the following config-file

Debug 0
Interface name vtun0
Pidfile /var/run/vpnc/pid
Local Port 500
#IKE DH Group dh2
#Perfect Forward Secrecy nopfs
IPSec gateway 129.206.100.81
IPSec id klartext
IPSec secret xxxxxxxxx
Xauth username "mylogin"
# ========

#Interface name vpnlink

# Varios options not undestood by vpnc itself but by some other scripts
#
# Target networks 123.234.210.0/24 10.1.0.0/16
# If Target networks is defined here, the default route is not replaced!

# Don't update resolv.conf though resolvconf is installed
# DNSUpdate no


does anyone have ANY idea of how I could share this connection with my laptop? Any help would be greatly appreciated, even if it's not m0n0-related ^^

Manuel looked at adding vpnc to m0n0wall at one point, but it's incompatible with some of the kernel options used in m0n0wall.

You'll just have to connect with the client on both machines. I've had 4-5 machines connected to the same Cisco VPN simultaneously and never had any problems. Should work fine for you.
