Hello,
i try to set up a OpenVPN server in bridge mode on a rented vps with debian 9. There are a lot of tutorials like
https://openvpn.net/community-resources/ethernet-bridging/. I have to admit that I am not that into network interfaces, but if i get it right they are all using the default eth0 interface as the base for the bridge, so they assign a private IP for that.
In my case the vps has assigned it's public IP address to eth0, so I obviously won't reach the vps if i change the interface setting (I had learned that two times 😃 ).
I can't find a fitting tutorial for that case, and i played around a lot without success. I bet there is an easy solution for that, do you have any hints for me?
