Here are the relevant lines from openvpn.conf:
# Configure server mode and supply VPN subnet for client addresses
server 4.44.4.0 255.255.255.0
# Allow VPN subnet to see the home gateway subnet
push "route 192.168.44.0 255.255.255.0"
I confirmed the IP for the tun interface:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr blahblahblahblah

After negotiating the VPN connection from a windows client, I checked the adapter's IP:
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 4:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : blahblahblahblah
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 4.44.4.6
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.252
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :
I'm not sure why the subnet mask is like that. Could that be the problem? Also there's no default gateway?
Anyway, I can ping the vpn server's IP on the vpn subset...
