Hello good evening,
I am self-taught and I am starting in the world of OpenVPN, I have a php system of inventory and sales,
which several clients are registered, I want to add a ticket printer for each client (It is a printer for tax calculation), the printer
To connect it with PHP you need to use Sockets locally it works fine, but when I try to use the vpn it gives me a connection error, I think the error
It is in the port selected for the default printer, the printer uses the 8090 and the vpn network uses the 2021 (I don't know if that is the error).
I have an instance on Vultr.com and my client is on windows I use debian.

Php error when trying to connect
Warning: socket_connect(): unable to connect [110]: Connection timed out in /var/www/fiscal/htdocs/TfhkaPHPTCP.php on line 31
socket_connect() falló. Razón: () Connection timed out
Really my question is how do I use the php sockets over VPN?
Any connection that I make through the VPN, do I have to use port 2021 that I use for VPN, or can other ports be used when I am already connected to the VPN?
