That page pertains to the NeExtender client functions only, so you can leave that configuration unaffected by your L2TP setup. The key here is that on the sonicwall side you do not use the “SSL VPN” page of the sonicwall to make the config setup. Here are the instructions to configure both the sonicwall side and examples of client side for L2TP as apposed to NetExtender. Here are the supported OSes: Opens a new window The caveats - we support up to 3 name servers today (need to be installed on all DCs handing out DNS) and the client needs to be installed on each end point that you want connectivity to/from. Plus, you can even support end users across Pertino since it's more like a WAN than a VPN. The service starts at boot up, so you can extend domain benefits natively and even pw resets. The connection is persistent so even if the aircard drops, Pertino will automatically reconnect once an internet connection is established. ![]() You install it on each end point (laptops, servers, DCs providing DNS), and you can translate AD natively across. It works a bit different from a traditional VPN. ![]() Pertino can solve this and Greg's challenge. I believe that if I can get it working, I can have the VPN automatically initiate when the mobile user logs into windows, or at least as soon as an internet connection is available. I then do a "gpupdate /force", log off their user, then login again while the VPN is still active under the local admin profile giving us access to the DC. I've tried in the past with 0 luck configuring the VPN Client that came with Windows 7 to our Sonicwall NSA2400.Ĭurrently I usually have to login to their machine, switch users to a local admin account, fire up the VPN then switch back to the user' profile. I assume after a few times of them logging in and waiting, etc. We have mobile users (Laptops) that we cannot push Group Policy changes to unless they actually open the VPN client, and enter in their credentials and so forth. The other options should be fairly obvious.I too am interested in doing this, and this is why: Gateway ID : Phase 1 Algorithms : 3des-sha1-modp1024!.In the nework-manager-l2tp IPsec Options dialog box, enable IPsec and use the following options: You will need to logout of your desktop environment (or reboot) for gnome-shell to properly pickup the installed plugin. sysconfdir=/etc -libdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu \ ![]() Prerequisites packages (note : you can safely copy and paste the \ shell line continuation character) : sudo apt install \ Unfortunately the version of network-manager-l2tp in the Ubuntu repository won't support the Gateway ID, so will need to build from source. You might find it easier to use the network-manager-l2tp VPN GUI client which uses strongswan and xl2tpd to do L2TP/IPsec connections. So the ike (phase 1) and esp (phase 2) lines should be : ike=3des-sha1-modp1024! I then used netExtender by SonicWall to then make the connection work and now use Remmina as my remote desktop client.Īccording to the following page, Diffie Hellman Group 2 is modp1024 : In the end, it turned out to be most likely a setting in the firewall. Installation worked fine, but I fear I miss something in the configuration.įor nf and crets, see above. Unfortunately, the connection still won't set up. Took me some time, but I finally tried the wonderful answer from Kosovic. Please let me know in case I missed some important information, I will then try to add it. ![]() # Following line was added by NetworkManager-l2tpĪnd after setting up things correctly, how can I then connect to my company computer as it would be possible with Remote Desktop on a Windows machine? # SonicWall unique for /etc/crets: : PSK "MY%SHARED%SECRET" I tried this as /etc/nf: # nf - strongSwan IPsec configuration file User name and password, registered in the SonicWallĬan someone show me a configuration file that might work for my environment?.tried to set up /etc/nf and /etc/crets and failed.set up the SonicWall settings I found that should work (see image below).I tried using this and that, but could not transfer them to my problem. The only "solutions" I found were several years old, mostly using OpenSwan (which has been replaced by StrongSwan, as far as I know), and none of them has been working (I have no clue about network settings and just tried some copy-paste stuff). I'm trying to connect to my company computer, which is behind a SonicWall.
