[vpn-help] Help with Linux ShrewSoft VPN Client [2.1.7]

I got a mail from David G Millar that pointed at the same issue he was 
having in Feb, and the thread also pointed at that link you included. 
Thankfully, setting "net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter" to 0 fixed my issue.

thanks for the response

Hi Brian,

You may want to look at this thread to see if it affects you, although 
if you installed Shrew from a repository, the install process should 
take care of it for you:

You can also generate a log file that we can look at using the 
instructions here (remember to change your IPs/usernames):
