I'm new to OpenVPN, and for simplicity's sake (probably the wrong move) I decided to use the OpenVPN Appliance. I have upgraded it to the newest version of OpenVPN 2.0.24, as well as I've upgraded the underlying Ubuntu OS as well.
The purpose of the VPN is to allow me to remotely support a non-profit school when I am unable to be onsite and to provide an offsite repository for encrypted backups of the schools files. I have managed to complete the first one successfully, the latter, not so much.
I can connect just fine to the VPN without a problem, and am able to get full access to the LAN via my remote device, but I cannot get anything working when attempting to travel in the opposite direction. I have tested everything when directly connected to the Network, and can ping, use UNC paths, etc without issues; when I bring the VPN into play, it's not working. I have put in a route that should be correct.
Basic Layout:
10.0.0.0/8 (LAN, too many IPs, but I can't change it until this summer, planning to drastically reduce it, but need the downtime when school is out to re-ip the network)
10.2.1.1 OpenVPN AS Appliance
172.27.224.0/27 VPN Tunnel Connection
172.27.224.17 VPN GW on Client PC (as currently configured by DHCP)
172.27.224.26 Client PC
I only need 2 servers to be able to transmit data from the server side to the remote client. I've added a persistent route for both servers.
Persistent Routes:
Network Address Netmask Gateway Address Metric
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.1 Default
172.27.224.0 255.255.255.224 10.2.1.1 1
First off, I cannot seem to find hide nor hair of the actual configs with the appliance (I'm really starting to think I should blow the appliance this way in favor of building a linux VM, but I was thinking this would be much simpler and quicker). So I don't have an easy way to post configs to ask for help, nor did I find any documentation on the location of the configs on the appliance. Does anyone know where that information could be found? It doesn't seem to be in any of the usual locations. This has made it hard to try any of the ideas I've read on the forums so far, as they all seem to require direct edits to the configs, which I can't find.
