ABOVE it - add this:- *nat :PREROUTING ACCEPT [0:0] :POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0] -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE COMMIT after you added the above, search down and find the following line:- -A FORWARD -j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT replace that line with all of this:- -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 1723 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -i eth0 -p gre -j ACCEPT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -i eth0 -p gre -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -A FORWARD -i ppp0 -o eth0 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o ppp0 -j ACCEPT -A OUTPUT -p gre -j ACCEPT save it, then run:- service iptables restart And you're good to go. Some people will need to do this:-

chkconfig pptpd on
service pptpd start

Also – if you do not have cfs – here is a different way (tested; working):

Edit /etc/sysconfig/iptables

Find the “*filter” line.

ABOVE it – add this:-

*nat
:P REROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:P OSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
-A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
COMMIT

after you added the above, search down and find the following line:-

-A FORWARD -j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT

replace that line with all of this:-

-A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp –dport 1723 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -i eth0 -p gre -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -i eth0 -p gre -j ACCEPT
-A FORWARD -j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT
-A FORWARD -i ppp0 -o eth0 -j ACCEPT
-A FORWARD -i eth0 -o ppp0 -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -p gre -j ACCEPT

save it, then run:-
service iptables restart

And you’re good to go.

Same result. Today it did connect and browsing was working for few min. Then it got disconnected and whenever i try connecting again Get Error 619 : Could not connect because port was closed. Now even with csf enabled, it did connect before and now giving this error. Before it was connecting but there was browsing issue. Is there any permanent fix ? I have tried disabling csf as well.

Get Error 619 : Could not connect because port was closed.

Now even with csf enabled, it did connect before and now giving this error. Before it was connecting but there was browsing issue.

Is there any permanent fix ?

Can you try connecting with csf disabled (csf -x)? I can only imagine it's a firewall issue, or the net.ipv4.ip_forward entry under /etc/sysctl.conf hasn't been applied. When you connect to the VPN can you ping 10.22.222.1? How about 208.67.222.222? Do you have csf installed?
