OpenVPN connects but traffic is not routed

cw1911

Hey there,

I have quite an odd issue. Last Friday, my VPN was working fine - I could connect and access computers on the VPN LAN. Since Monday, I can connect, but I cannot seem to access any computers/services at the VPN location.

My config file is as follows:

client
dev tap
proto tcp
remote <my URL> 443
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
ca ca.crt
cert laptop.crt
key laptop.key
ns-cert-type server
cipher AES-256-CBC
comp-lzo
verb 4

And my log file for the client:

Trace complete.

So as you can see, it connects but does not seem to be able to communicate with computers on the VPN.

I can't provide server-side configs as I don't have connectivity to the VPN site - sorry about that.

Other info:

I have not (knowingly) made any edits to anything server-side - though I did update the packages on my server and client to 2.3.4 a week or so ago
The VPN server's IP address has not changed (the URL points to the correct IP)
I am using TCP on port 443 because my university blocks outbound traffic on other ports and protocols when I am on campus
I don't think this is an IP config issue - my current network is configured for 192.168.2.0/24 and my home network (the one running the VPN server) is configured for 192.168.1.0/24 and has previously worked for the last 11 months.
I am using Windows 7 on the client and Ubuntu on the server

If there is any other information I have not provided that you could find useful, please say and I'll get it.

Alright, that's a shame. I'll be able to get the config on Friday so I'll just be patient until then. Thanks for your reply.

Thanks for your reply, and sorry that I couldn't write back sooner. Your comment about IP addresses was spot on - something somewhere had changed which was causing issues with my VPN connection. I suspect my landlord had changed something on the router that serves where I stay during the week.

I've switched over to using the 10.0.0.0 IP ranges for both my home network and the remote network I was using before and that's solved my issue of being unable to see computers and services on the VPN server's LAN.

Thank you very much for your help!
