Issues with l2tp VPN
Tl;Dr Verizon fios router --> apple airport extreme --> Lion server. port 22 & 1701 forwarded correctly SSH works but VPN does not. VPN works locally.
Trying to set up a VPN from my mac server. In the past I had everything set up properly and it worked fine, however after we moved I have had some trouble with the setup. We changed to Verizon FiOS and had to use their router in conjunction with our own Airport Extreme. I have forwarded port 22 through the FiOS router to the Airport Extreme and then to the server, SSH works fine. After setting up the VPN and testing it locally I forwarded port 500,1701,4500 on both, but the VPN will not work externally.
Here is a summery:
Lion Server
Ports 22,500,1701,4500 all forwarded through routers
SSH works
VPN does not
syslog:
