from now to later - no connection to network drives

Post by goodfred » Wed Jun 23, 2021 10:17 am

Hello everyone!

From now to later I cant access the network drives anymore.
I hope you can help!

We dont changed any configuration.
The client can establish a connection (and I see it in the servers log)
but the client cannot access anymore network drives and we cant ping the server anymore.

I hope we dont need to upgrade the installation of openVPN.
We are using the OpenVPN GUI 11.15.0.0 and an OpenVPN version from 2018.

We copied the .ovpn config file to our computers and tried to establish the connection here.
But the same problem occurs. We cant use network drives and cannot ping the server.

I hope for help in here and I stay
with best gegards!

Goodfred

P.S.: Additional information:
Version: OpenVPN 2.4.9 x86_64-w64-mingw32

I hope I have not forgotten something.
Thank you!

I tried a server-restart what did not help.
Im searching the web now for hours and tried a fresh configuration file. Both did not help. But I will go on search the web. When I have a solution I will inform you!

Thanks!

Because searching the web is consuming to much time we decided to completely reinstall OpenVPN.
We've found the old installer on the server.

Thank you anyway! ;)

I am trying at the moment to install the newest version,
but in all tutorials I find elements which are not present in the installation of the newest version.

Do you have any tipps how I should act if I want a completely new fresh installation of the newest version?

Hinweis: Seit der Version 2.5 werden neue Tools ausgeliefert und die Erstellung der Zertifikate hat sich verändert!
(since the version 2.5 there are new tools integrated and the creation of certificates has changed)

P.S.: And I found this https://wiki.teltonika-networks.com/vie ... on_Windows (which is working fine with 2.5.3)
