Hi all,
I need help setting up vpn connection between my office network and home computer that runs Ubuntu linux with vpnc as a client.
What I did is I went to router's management webinterface -> VPN->IPSec VPN->
- then made a new connection (named yfd-vpn). I understand it will be a group name in client settings.
- local group setup was prefilled for me and it was
- Local Security Gateway Type: "IP only"
- IP address: xxx.xxx.47.88 (router's WAN IP address)
- Local Security Group Type: subnet
- IP Address: 192.168.yyy.1 (router's LAN IP address)
- Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
- Remote Group Setup
- Remote Security Gateway Type: Any
- Remote Security Group Type: IP address
- IP Address: zzz.zzz.zzz.137 ###this is my home router's LAN IP address. I am not sure if it should be put here. Maybe WAN address or LAN address on VPN host site with a different network parameters?
- IPSec setup
- Phase 1 (left unchanged)
- Phase 2 (left unchanged) except:
- Preshared Key: {password} ### I understand this wil be a group password for client
- Created a user and assigned a password under VPN client accounts, made sure the user is "active".
- Attempted to connect from home Ubuntu terminal using vpnc-connect:
$ sudo vpnc-connect
[sudo] password for vlad:
Enter IPSec gateway address: xxx.xxx.47.88
Enter IPSec ID for xxx.xxx.47.88: yfd-vpn
Enter IPSec secret for yfd-vpn@xxx.xxx.47.88: {password from item #4 above}
Enter username for xxx.xxx.47.88: {username from item #5 above}
Enter password for {username}@xxx.xxx.47.88: {password from item #5 above}
vlad@test-System-Product-Name:~$
vpnc-connect: response was invalid [1]: (ISAKMP_N_INVALID_COOKIE)(4)
So my question is what did I not do or did not do right?
Thank you.
