Hello I'm sorry I have the same problem I followed all the instructions to install OpenVPN on my EC 2 instance (Amazon) but when I connect my client to the server, it doesn't give me the server IP in whatismyip.com but my client IP :/ So there is no routing and I think it's the same problem you discussed in this topic.

Hope you can explain what Vertixo explained ? 🙁

Well I just found what was going on... And It was just by tweaking randomly in the admin panel of OpenVPN!

All I had to do is : navigate to "VPN Settings" in the Admin then :

Check "Yes" for "Should clients Internet traffic be routed through the VPN ?"
Check "Have clients use the same DNS servers as the Access Server host" in "DNS Settings".

Hope it helps since I didn't find this info anywhere in the net. Good luck :roll:
