Well,
I have been reading the HOWTO from the top and I now understand a bit more so I have changed the server.conf line:
push "route 192.168.0.
150 255.255.255.0"
to
push "route 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0"
because I did not understand that the left item should be a
network rather than a specific address.
But when I read the part "
Including multiple machines on the server side when using a routed VPN" I reached a full stop when i got to here:
Next, you must set up a route on the server-side LAN gateway to route the VPN client subnet (10.8.0.0/24) to the OpenVPN server (this is only necessary if the OpenVPN server and the LAN gateway are different machines).
Make sure that you've enabled IP and TUN/TAP forwarding on the OpenVPN server machine.
There is no explicit description on
how this is to be done, no server.conf entries to change or such, so I am none the wiser. 🙁
Edit:
I think it has to do with the iptables commands as they are spread in several places in the tutorials I have read including the OpenVPN HOWTO.
But I do not know
where to put these commands (obviously I am not supposed to enter them manually every time the VPN server reboots...).
For example this from the HOWTO:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.8.0.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
is supposed to be entered somewhere into a file, but the HOWTO fails to mention where and in what order (if it matters).
/Edit
I started to look at the client log (available in a menu on the OpenVPN Connect app while the connection is established) and it looked pretty big.
So I wanted to get it as a file rather than looking at it through a phone window.
Hence I created this thread....
So do you know how the logfile can be saved to disk and examined using a regular editor?
Concerning my server side configuration struggles I have already created
another thread for this (which you have kindly commented in).
