Goal: Play games from work! (work sucks, this is a very important goal)
I've successfully been able to connect to my game servers i've hosted from home before, so i know how to port forward from my router. Im a n00b as far as open VPN is concerned.
I'm using port x, and i've forwarded x to my server box (win7 32bit). I'm trying to follow the quick start guide using static keys, and i've read the post on here about win7. Ive shared my net connection on my win7 box and set the gui to run with admin priv, but when i try to connect using open vpn both client and server just sit there saying 'connecting'.
Server:
port x
dev tun
ifconfig 10.8.0.1 10.8.0.2
secret static.key
comp-lzo
keepalive 10 60
ping-timer-rem
persist-tun
persist-key
Client:
client
remote my.wan.ip.x
port x
dev tun
ifconfig 10.8.0.2 10.8.0.1
secret static.key
comp-lzo
keepalive 10 60
ping-timer-rem
persist-tun
persist-key
Im obviously missing some steps here to reach my goal, any help would be appreciated!
Please help this drone slave escape the dire realities of the workplace! 😃
