At one point, I had PPTP Roadwarrior access configured, and was using an address pool from the private address range to assign IPs to clients. I have since disabled the PPTP Roadwarrior feature. The three following days showed empty PPTP logs, but yesterdays (the 12th) logs showed two different connections:
Apr 12 07:41:11 (none) pppd[585]: pppd 2.4.1 started by root, uid 0
Apr 12 07:41:11 (none) pppd[585]: Using interface ppp0
Apr 12 07:41:11 (none) pppd[585]: Connect: ppp0 /dev/ttyp0
Apr 12 07:41:13 (none) pppd[585]: Remote message: CHAP authentication success, unit 742
Apr 12 07:41:13 (none) pppd[585]: local IP address XXX.YYY.34.187
Apr 12 07:41:13 (none) pppd[585]: remote IP address XXX.YYY.34.1
Apr 12 16:48:10 (none) pppd[569]: pppd 2.4.1 started by root, uid 0
Apr 12 16:48:10 (none) pppd[569]: Using interface ppp0
Apr 12 16:48:10 (none) pppd[569]: Connect: ppp0 /dev/ttyp0
Apr 12 16:48:12 (none) pppd[569]: Remote message: CHAP authentication success, unit 1757
Apr 12 16:48:12 (none) pppd[569]: local IP address XXX.YYY.39.93
Apr 12 16:48:12 (none) pppd[569]: remote IP address XXX.YYY.39.1
The remote IP address is the IP address of my default gateway, as assigned by my ISP through DSL PPPoE, and the local IP address is the IP assigned to the firewall at the time of connection.
Previously when I had PPTP configured, the local and remote IPs would be something from the PPTP pool that was configured, but the log entries are showing public internet addresses. To me, it seems like the firewall is still accepting PPTP connections, even though the service is disabled in WebAdmin, which should not be the case.
Anyone have any ideas?
