sniceper Hello, I just installed Open VPN Server on a Windows machine for the first time (Windows 10 Pro). The goal is, for some remote client computers ( Windows 10 Pro as well), to securely access to that server resources. I'm currently trying to configure my first connection with RDP. So, to make a summary: * OpenVPN Server is Online. (local address: 192.168.1.17 / VPN Address 10.8.0.1) * OpenVPN Client is Online in another network. (local address 192.168.1.2 / VPN address 10.8.0.6) * Client can ping 10.8.0.1 * Server can ping 10.8.0.6 * Both Client and server Firewalls are Disabled for testing purpose * RDP is running well when connection is performed with a client from same network as server. When performing a RDP Connection from client to server, it fails. To get a bit more details, I have performed a Network monitor Trace on both machines to know where is the issue. From what i can see, The client perform the SYN Request , that arrive on the server as expected. My problem is that the server don't even try to answer. Indeed, i can't even see that the server is sending a response. The next packet is a TCP RETRANSMIT from the client, which is still expecting a response. Since I'm really a noob with VPN technologies, and with particularly with OpenVPN, i wonder if my problem may be due to Routing issue? Actually I'm Not Sure to understand Route and Push system very well. Here is my config on server side: ;local a.b.c.d port 1199 ;proto tcp proto udp ;dev tap dev tun ;dev-node MyTap ca ca.crt cert server.crt key server.key dh dh1024.pem ;topology subnet server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0 ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt ;server-bridge 10.8.0.4 255.255.255.0 10.8.0.50 10.8.0.100 ;server-bridge ;push "route 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0" push "route 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0" ;client-config-dir ccd ;route 192.168.40.128 255.255.255.248 ;client-config-dir ccd ;route 10.9.0.0 255.255.255.252 ;learn-address ./script ;push "redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp" ;push "dhcp-option DNS 208.67.222.222" ;push "dhcp-option DNS 208.67.220.220" client-to-client ;duplicate-cn keepalive 10 120 tls-auth ta.key 0 # This file is secret cipher AES-256-CBC ;compress lz4-v2 ;push "compress lz4-v2" ;comp-lzo ;max-clients 100 ;user nobody ;group nobody persist-key persist-tun status openvpn-status.log ;log openvpn.log ;log-append openvpn.log verb 3 explicit-exit-notify 1 If you have any other idea, I'm Interested As Well 🙂 Please do't hesitate if you need further informations. Thank you very much in Advance. 😉
Pippin ^^^ OpenVPN Server ...local address: 192.168.1.17 OpenVPN Client ...local address 192.168.1.2 and make those ^^^ subnets unique...
sniceper OK I'll try to change the subnet for one of the two networks, and Push the server side subnet with push command on Config file. I keep you in touch. Thank you very much.
