Server with ipv6: Can clients with ipv6 lines connect?

sbender

Hi,

I have a general question to you specialists.

I run an OpenVPN server that waits for connections to a public ipv4 address, connections on the correct port are forwarded to that server.
If I connect a laptop client from my home (ipv6 WLAN, internet access via Cable with ip4v capability) everything is fine.

If the same laptop sits in a ipv4 WLAN behind an internet access that is "ipv6 only", the client can establish a VPN connection, but data transfers do not work (e.g. it cannot open an intranet page behind the OpenVPN server).

Can this be caused by that ipv6 internet access?
If so: What can I do to get rid of this issue?

Thank you!

Best regards,
Stephan

Try reading your logs.

We don't even know which version of Openvpn you are using:
