I cant get Open VPN to work to save my life

[ngkrich]

Hello,

Completely new to networking and this has somewhat been driving me insane for the better part of 4 days now. I have read 5 tutorials and cannot seem to get any of them to work.



Additional Config

Code: Select all

push "route 10.217.64.55 255.255.255.0"
push "dhcp-options DNS 10.217.64.186"
server 10.217.88.0 255.255.255.0

dev tun0
proto udp
keepalive 10 120

Code for the client

Code: Select all

remote myip 1194
client
dev tun
proto udp
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
cipher aes-256-cbc
float
tun-mtu 1400
ca ca.crt
cert client2.crt
key client2.key

ns-cert-type server
comp-lzo
verb 3

I tried disabling the firewall in DDWRT, but that had no effect. Here are the IPtables I am currently using, though I have tried about 20 iterations.

Code: Select all

iptables -I INPUT 1 -p udp --dport 1194 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD 1 --source 10.217.88.0/24 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD 1 --source 10.217.88.1/24 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.217.88.1/24 -o br0 -j MASQUERADE
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.217.88.1/24 -j MASQUERADE
iptables -I FORWARD -i br0 -o tun0 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i tun0 -o br0 -j ACCEPT

I am sure I am doing something hilariously wrong, but I cannot grasp it with all the poor tutorials.

I suspect it has to do with the fact that I can not seem to get a service to see 1194 as if it were open. Despite the fact that I have the IP table configured.

Edit: My bad, wrong section. Please delete.
