anything else blocked? - 2008/11/10 19:46
I'm using Linux to connect, the authentication works fine. I can ping the remote PPP endpoint fine. I'm not using PPP for a default route, but instead I add a very specific route to an outside machine, e.g. I'll say
route add -host 70.110.140.55 gw 164.110.5.5
..where 70.110.140.55 is the machine I want to get to, and 164.110.5.5 is the remote PPP endpoint. That endpoint already has a route to it setup by PPP (device ppp0), and as I mentioned, can be pinged. But getting past it doesn't seem to work. I tried ftp and ssh.
Are there any other tricks -- any other ports besides nntp & smtp that are blocked? Any special routes that should be added beyond the remote PPP endpoint?
I realize that vast majority of people would be using port 80 -- are there any rules against port 443, or encryption in general?
Thanks!
