IPCOP and 3Com Secure Gateway

Postby Guest » Tue Dec 13, 2005 4:21 am

I am trying to replace a 3Com Secure Gateway at the main office with an
IPCOP 1.4.10 box. all of the vpn end points at the remote offices are
3c857-us 3com secure gateways. I have tryed several vpn configurations
on both boxes with no luck. Has anyone else hammered through this one
yet?

Different question? Did you do the install of ipcop? I'm tryibg to set
it up but can't get pass making a bootable floppy... I read/downloaded
but still can't get it to boot off the floppy.

Thanks

Gene please don't hijack other peoples threads and this is going to
sound cruel (I blame last nights beer and this mornings lack of coffee)
but you still can't get a boot floppy to work and IPCop to install? I
suggest one of several things then: find a local linux geek and pay them
to do it, 2: go to your local computer store and buy one of those
router/firewalls they sell. Because if you can't make a boot floppy
running a secure linux firewall is out of the question.

I have never tryed to set up any 3com gateway's, but a thought that comes

to my mind is the question if you are using a cross over cable, it may be
needed between the Ip-Cop and the gateway's.
I have a D-link 604 between my PC's and the Ip-Cop, the conections between
the gateway and the PC's is supported by non-cross over cable's but between
the router and the Ip-Cop I finded it necessary to use the cross over cable
to make it work, just as it is necessary between 2 PC's.
