Package: pptp-linux Version: 1.9.0+ds-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I have a VPN tunnel configuration which aims to redirect all internet traffic via the remote VPN. The following pppd options are used in pppd tunnel configuration: defaultroute, replacedefaultroute Everything worked ok since recent dist-upgrade (3 days ago). Expected behaviour is so 'pon TUNNEL' replaces the default gw and creates two more new entries in the routing table, i.e. Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 ppp0 VPNSERVER-PUBLIC-IP 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 UHG 0 0 0 eth0 VPNSERVER-INTERNAL-IP 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 Since recent system upgrade, 'pon TUNNEL' fails to automatically create host routing entry with the VPNSERVER-PUBLIC-IP via the old iface eth0, so now I get: Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 ppp0 VPNSERVER-INTERNAL-IP 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 This leads to network not being accessible (and 100% cpu load). When the missing host routing entry is added manually, by 'route add -host <VPNServer> gw 192.168.0.1' everything works ok. IMPORTANT NOTE: The bug seems not to belong to pptp-linux package per se, since this package was not upgraded (and since the recent upgrade, the same pptp-linux version worked ok). So the upgrade of some other system packages actually broke this default behaviour (iproute2 was one of the packages that were upgraded). I am not sure however to which package to attribute the bug and therefore posting the bug report against pptp-linux.
