Opening port on L2TP VPN

solarvm

Hello,

I used this tutorial: https://raymii.org/s/tutorials/IPSEC_L2TP_vpn_with_Ubuntu_12.04.html
to setup L2TP VPN on my KVM box.

How can I open the port for my torrent client so I can reach it from the VPN IP.

Thanks

iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport *yourport* -j ACCEPT

Add a src directive if you want to lock it down a bit.

This is not really what I'm looking for. I'm trying to FORWARD the port to the VPN, so when I for example open a webserver, I can visit that webserver from the VPN.

VISITOR (Port80) ------> VPN ------> PC (Port80)

I know I can use NGINX but this is just an example.

Thanks
