apeg Hey guys, I'm the farthest thing from a VPN guru but I was able to hack my way through setting up two routers with tomato, one as the server and the other as the client, and its working wonderfully. (r7000's in case you anyone is interested). When I say working wonderfully, I mean everything; i can access all devices via local IP range, SMB shares, great speeds... the list goes on. But I have run into a real odd problem with a single device; a micro PC running ubuntu. This device is connected to the Server router, but when I try to connect to it from a computer on the client router side its like it does not exist? But when I remote connect into a PC on the server side then SSH into the same IP, it works? there are other devices on the server side that I can SSH into without issue, its just this one single device? Ive tried changing its internal IP with no success. And here is the kicker... i was just at the server location, remote connected to a computer on the client side and SSH into the device successfully!? when i went back to the client location and tried again its reverted back to like it doesn't exist? Its not the end of the world for me as i do most of my work remote connected anyhow, so i didn't want to bother you guys with configurations and logs... but i'm just curious if anyone has an idea of what could be going on here?
TiTex i would say it's most likely a firewall issue, did you check iptables rules or ufw , apparmor ? try disabling the firewall , apparmor test if it works with those off , and if it works then you know where to look for the issue
Traffic apeg wrotei didn't want to bother you guys with configurations and logs... You want us to guess then :ugeek:
apeg Great, ill play around with the firewall and see i can get the behaviour to change any. Thanks @ Traffic, exactly... didn't want to waste anyone's time seeing how I wouldn't really be accessing the device in this way, just curious if people had some hunches I could investigate when i had some free time. Thanks again,
