Chapter 14 Configuring and Managing Network Services 245
Available VPN serveradmin Commands
To manage VPN service, use the following commands with the serveradmin tool.
Viewing the VPN Service Log and Log Path
To view the contents of the VPN service log or to view log paths, use tail or another
file listing tool.
To view the latest entries in the log:
$ tail
log-file
To see where the current VPN service log is located, use the serveradmin getLogPaths
command.
To view the log path:
$ sudo serveradmin command vpn:command = getLogPaths
The computer responds with the following output:
vpn:vpnLog = <vpn-log>
Site-to-Site VPN
Site-to-site VPN is implemented by the daemon vpnd, which is a wrapper around the
racoon daemon and the setkey tool. The racoon daemon negotiates and configures a
set of parameters of IPsec. setkey manipulates Security Association Database (SAD)
entries as well as Security Policy Database (SPD) entries in the kernel.
For more information, see the racoon and setkey man pages. racoon also has a
webpage at www.kames.com/racoon. You might also find the ipsec man page helpful.
Apple provides an interactive s2svpnadmin tool, in /usr/sbin/, that enables you to
configure and set up site-to-site VPN. The
s2svpnadmin tool accesses configuration
information for the Client Server VPN application in Server Admin.
The
s2svpnadmin tool does not start the VPN service. You must start the VPN service
separately from Server Admin.
