http://serverfault.com – I have an ubuntu machine on which I am running an openvpn server. From a windows machine on a different network when I try to connect to the ubuntu machine it says connected. I can even ping the local ip of the ubuntu machine. But I do not get a public ip address. That is the public ip address of the computer(windows) remains the same and does not change(checked on cmyip). Why is this happening and how should I resolve this issue? Client config: client proto udp dev tun ca ca.crt dh dh2048.pem cert client3.crt key client3.key remote publicip 1194 c (HowTos)

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.

OpenVPN Client timing out 23 weeks 1 day ago

I recently installed OpenVPN on my Ubuntu VPS. Whenenver I try to connect to it, I can establish a connection just fine.

However, everything I try to to times out.

If I try to ping something, it will resolve the IP, but will time out after resolving the IP.

My server.conf has this relevant information (At least I think it's relevant.

i want to connect to a multiple OpenVPN server (apprx 100's) from openvpn client running in a single computer? OR a How many instances of openvpn client can be run in single computer which will be connected to the different remote OpenVPN server ?
