How to access shared drives over OpenVPN

cormeister7

Hi. First timer here.

Just FINALLY got OpenVPN to connect to my network. I see my connection has a private IP address of 10.8.0.6. How would I go about accessing my shared drives that are located in a NAS with an IP of 192.168.1.xxx? I assume there must be some way to navigate to it, or connect to the server directly. I tried connect to server with the above IP address with no luck.

I dont know what I dont know!

Hello cormeister 7,

Generally you use Windows Explorer and open the address \\192.168.1.xxx or use macOS Finder and use the 'go to server' function and connect to it using a URL like CIFS://192.168.1.xxx or something similar.

Kind regards,
Johan
