I have an OpenVPN server and I can connect to it just fine but I can not communicate with any other hosts on the network including the server. I can't ping from the server to an OpenVPN client, I can't ping from an OpenVPN client to the OpenVPN server, I can't ping from OpenVPN client to OpenVPN client or from OpenVPN client to normal LAN host and vise-versa.
I recently setup a cheap VPS for the sole intention of using it as a VPN server so I can access geo restricted content.
I used a script to setup OpenVPN server on the VPS and retrieved the keys for use on my client Win 7 OpenVPN.
On my Win 7 client, I can connect to the VPN, but I can't use the internet.
I'm a novice when it comes to networking and my needs are quite basic.
Here's my log from
I setup my Scientific Linux 6.2 as an OpenVPN client via the instructions here, and restarted my OpenVPN service. I checked /var/log/messages and it says the VPN connection was established. However, now I cannot make any connections out of my computer!
I'm using OpenVPN Access Server 1.8.4.213 in Amazon VPC.
Hello,
I am using my linux router successfully since several month now as a OpenVPN client + PPPoE DSL router. All traffic from every client behind the router is directly passed through a OpenVPN connection.
But I wanted to have some services run on the router too like SSH and others, and I want them to be accessible from out WAN side, like normal when there wouldn't be any VPN link.
I have a problem with OpenVPN. I've successfully managed to setup an OpenVPN server on my router which is running TomatoUSB.
I then followed the following steps on 1 client computer.
Download the latest version of OpenVPN with OpenVPN GUI
Copy the certs and config files into the config directory
Connect
On the client I tested the remote-gateway was being pushed correctly.
I have setup an openvpn access server in my vps. And now l'm living China, the goverment blocks the many foreign sites such as facebook and twitter.
I can use the vpn server the cross the firewall of China to access twitter and so on through my desktop running the windows xp.
However, my laptop running xubuntu 12.04 cannot break through the national firewall.
I have a OpenVPN server installed in an Amazon instance with Windows Server 2008 R2, and there's my client.
First i connect to my VPN
For some reason when i try to connect to my VPN server and RDP to it, the RDP's screen freezes after some seconds because the connection or tunnel is dropping after some seconds is established.
To set up tunnel first, i run this command:
sudo openvpn client.conf
Hello all,
I posted this to the openvpn forums, but I haven't gotten any response back, so I figured I'd give this forum a try.
