Hey Guys,
I know this might be a very specific problem but I'm basically stuck for days already and don't know what to try anymore.
The current situation is:
I have 5 virtual machines (OS: Ubuntu 16.04) and 1 Computer (OS: Ubuntu 18.04). Since I do not have access to port forwarding and I cannot get an ip address within the same subnet of the vitual machines, I had to figure out a way to connect the virtual machines with my computer.
My idea of a solution was to set up an external VPN server and connect all virtual machines and the computer as clients to my VPN server. So far so good, everything works as I expected it to do. But the problem is that the blockchain clients won't sync.
Even without the computer connected to the virtual machines (but with active vpn connection) I cannot get the blockchain to get synced. As soon as I turn off the vpn connection (all virtual machines are within the same subnet), the blockchain syncs as intended.
My guess is, that this is some sort of p2p problem but I basically don't have a clue since my expectation was that as soon as all clients are connected to a vpn server, it'll emulate a local area network.
I can ping and access all other clients via network.
I hope anyone has an idea to help me out here because I'm already very frustrated 😃
Cheers
Chris
