I'm not quite sure if you will not get into problems. Have you rebooted
the machine? Are you using the unit in bridge mode or as PPTP modem?
If I have a look at the config file of my unit that runs into PPTP mode it
looks like:
config forwarding=on firewalling=on redirects=on sourcerouting=off ttl=64 fraglimit=64 defragmode=nat
apadd addr=10.0.0.138/8 intf=eth0 broadcastip=10.255.255.255 addroute=no
rtadd dst=10.0.0.0/8 gateway=10.0.0.138
rtadd dst=255.255.255.255/32 gateway=10.0.0.138
rtadd dst=10.0.0.0/8 src=10.0.0.0/8 gateway=10.0.0.138
I guess forwarding is required. Firewalling is not relevant. redirects are
something I'm not sure of but I guess it isn't needed.
Without an IP adres there is no way to setup PPTP so it can't be missed.
Hugo.
