A little help with my server..

RevDev

Well first of all, OpenVPN is great. (Just wanted to say that)

Im guessing that my problem isnt really with OpenVPN itself, but I didnt know where else to post it - I hope someone can help me.

This is the issue:
I have an OpenVPN server running on Ubuntu(with gui, updated to newest version) as a VM inside my XEN environment.
This server is running on default config except for the following:
- client-to-client
- push "192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0"

Its standard config for now, so im sure thats not the problem.

Im behind a Speedport 723V (typ A) router, which has the port 1194 forwarded. (I checked with a portscanner if its open)

So -> I can connect with a client INSIDE my network with the ip(192.168.0.118) and can ping both 10.8.0.1 and 192.168.0.118.

But I cant seem to connect to the WAN address of my router (static IP). Its not a portforwarding issue, ive tried this router in a differnet environment.

Can someone help me out with some ideas?

The connection is VDSL, could this be a problem?

hi there,

But I cant seem to connect to the WAN address of my router (static IP). Its not a portforwarding issue, ive tried this router in a differnet environment.

are you trying to connect from inside your lan using your own wan router ip?

if yes, your router must support that feature in order to connect,
i know that newer zyxel zywalls have an extra setting for this to work...
