I am currently trying to set up a private LAN for friends & family via OpenVPN, but I'm biting my teeth.
I get a connection to my server and pinging to other clients or to the server and each other also works, as does the direct file access.
But the network is recognized as a public network in Windows, both at the client and at the server. I tried to change this via the registry, it worked but only resulted in it becoming an unidentified network with the connectivity: No network access.
- The funny thing about it: The network access works.
During my research on the Internet I came across various solutions, such as "pushing a 0.0.0.0 route" but unfortunately none of them worked so far.
That's why I have to ask you for help and I hope someone has a solution.
As I said, I only want a LAN network for file sharing and gaming, I don't want to have the Internet routed from the server to the clients, and I don't want to hide any IPs either .
Here are my configs:
