Open VPN Connect and Untangle

Watermain

Been tracking an issue for a couple of days now and can't seem to find anything, this is across all of my networks. (I have 4 locations with Untangle routers the are all separate networks)..when using OpenVPN connect v3.2.1 to connect to OpenVPN on untangle 15.1 I can ping the internal machines and gateway, I can connect to anything on port 80 but nothing else, RDP (3389) custom (11102) etc...I can't seem to find anything that points to forcing all traffic through the VPN...Older version of OpenVPN GUI Client 11.8 works and tunnelblick works but OpenVPN connect does not. I've also tried OpenVPN connect on android and iPhone and it will ping anything and get to anything on port 80 in the browser but noting else. Thank you for your time in advance 🙂

Openvpn does not filter by port, so this must be a firewall issue.

Watermain

That's what I thought but once the older version of OpenVPN GUI connects I don't have any issues with RDP or a custom panel that uses port 11102...The reason I am working on this is that the Android and iPhone versions are what I really need to work.

OpenVPN does not filter on ports.

So you are barking up the wrong tree ..

Watermain

so would you say this is a VPN server side issue or a client side config issue? Leaving firewalls out of the equation, the device that responds to port 11102 is not a PC it is a mechanical automation touchscreen with a ethernet port and communication times out over openvpn connect but doesn't time out when using the older openVPN gui software.

Then you are attached to another object by an incline plane wrapped helically around an axis ..

It is your firewall ..

I appreciate that you think you understand the question but responding to me about the firewall over and over again just shows that you haven't read anything that I've posted -

BTW: Openvpn-Connect is closed source .. you need the corporate support channel.

Watermain

If it's the firewall then why can I connect with the old openvpn software (windows) and tunnelblick (mac) but not on the new software openvpn connect (android, iPhone, mac, and windows)

Watermain

I'm not stuck on the corporate software, I just need something to connect using (android, iPhone, mac, and windows)

No configs -- No logs -- No Idea ..

Crystal ball still says: Firewall.

Just to be clear, you are referring to the Untangle Router as the Firewall?

TinCanTech

Sure, what-ever .. we don't support untangle but you can post what ever you want to.

Just to be clear, you did not read the links i posted.

Are you being paid for your expertise ?
