Hi Team
I have openvpn server on windows 8.1 and all clients are windows 8 and 7 and 8.1 . I have configured openvpn server with public IP (Static IP).
When i ping my server from remote location using IP it's works like a charm But when i try to ping using Host Name not works.
I also passed WINS server using
push "dhcp-option WINS 10.8.0.1"
but not working and also i added this WINS IP in my openvpn server Ethernet card but no luck.
