Hi,
I've got a fairly simple setup with 1 LAN behind an OpenVPN. I'm trying to set it up so I can access the network when connecting remotely. I have read a few guides and spent a number of hours trying but annoyingly cannot seem to get it to work.
I've had a look at:
https://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html#scope
and
https://secure-computing.net/wiki/index.php/OpenVPN/Routing
plus a lot of forum posts.
I think it has to do with routes, pushing routes and ccd, but I'm obviously not getting everything correct. I've tried using ccd but the router comes up with errors and is unable to start the VPN.
My setup:
- OpenVPN setup on Asus RT-AC66U (on 192.168.1.1)
- LAN Network with 3 computers connected to the router, all on 192.168.1.X
- VPN subnet: 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
- TUN, TCP
- Additional configuration for VPN:
client-to-client
push "route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0"
route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
route 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
push "route 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0"
topology subnet
keepalive 15 60
ping-timer-rem
persist-tun
persist-key
I'm trying to connect from a computer on a different subnet (in the 172.16 range). I can ping and connect to the router over the VPN. I cannot ping or connect to any of the computers behind the router.
My aim is to be able to open Excel files stored on the computers connected to the router hosting the VPN.
If you need any logs then please let me know which ones you need. I'm hoping it might be an easy fix!!
Thank you.
