PPTP-VPN + UFW how to get it to work?

Hi,

How can I configure UFW to work allow PPTP-VPN to pass through?

I have set-up the vpn and if UFW is disabled it is working fine. As soon as I enable it, it does not work anymore.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Rufus

I have added the rules in `/etc/ufw/before.rules`:

    # Allow GRE protocol for VPN
    -A ufw-before-input -p 47 -j ACCEPT
    -A ufw-before-output -p 47 -j ACCEPT

I have also added the rules in GUFW:

    1723   ALLOW IN   EVERYWHERE
    1723   ALLOW OUT   EVERYWHERE
    1723   ALLOW IN (v6)   EVERYWHERE
    1723   ALLOW OUT (v6)   EVERYWHERE

It should work...

Is this for Antergos? If so, you should ask on their forum.
