OpenVPN Access Server Cannot ping remote network

Post by MartyRS1975 » Wed Jul 27, 2016 10:56 am

Hi, Sorry am new to OpenVPN.

The problem i am having is that once connected to remote network I can only ping the connected computer, nothing else on the remote network.

Current setup - OpenVPN Access Server on a VPS, remote computer (uBuntu 14.04) auto connecting to VPS openVPN access server. (auto login - set to VPN Gateway) - local computer (windows) connect to VPN and SSH (putty) to remote LAN - I can do anything i like on that computer and of course can ping any other computer on that network through SSH. I can ping the remote VPN (Ubuntu) computer once the VPN is open (local network 192.168.1.0/24 to remote network 10.0.110.0/24) but nothing else on that network. I have enabled ip port forwarding (i think) but have missed something.

Hope you can help. Please remember i am a noob to this sort of setup so will need pretty much step by step on how to get the files you need to help me etc

Cheers,
