client access via routing

Post by gomarjoba » Wed Apr 26, 2023 1:11 pm

Hello. The server is configured. I need to configure client network access. In the user settings, the network that is behind the client is specified.
Ping doesn't work even from my own openpvn server.
What could be the reason? Image

I got a problem. I’ m running the “Access Server” solution offered by openVPN https://openvpn.net/as-docs/general.html on a Linux Ubuntu computer.

My final goal is to get windows clients to connect each other using remote desktop (windows 10).

I can connect to my OpenVPN access server from my clients, but I can’t get my clients to connect to each other.

To make things simple, my test scenario has only 2 clients, client 1 and client 2. My goal is to ping client 2’s LAN ip address from client 1.

The clients are windows computers while the server (hosting the OpenVPN access server) is a Linux Ubuntu computer.

Each client connects to OpenVPN Server remotely through internet WAN.

The LAN ip addresses of the computers are as follows:

client1 (LAN ip 192.168.1.5)
--->(internet)
--->openVPN access Server (LAN ip 193.169.10.10)
<--- (internet)
<---client2 (LAN ip 194.170.10.100)

My openVPN access admin panel Settings:

- Dissabled NAT and Enabled Routing
- Client 1 User Permissions (from admin panel)
* Enabled VPN Gateway with client-side subnet 192.168.1.0/24
- Client 2 User Permissions (from admin panel)
* Enabled VPN Gateway with client-side subnet 194.170.10.0/24

My goal is to ping 194.170.10.100 (target client2) from client1. I can't get it to work

The "ping 194.170.10.100" returns "Request time out / packets 100% loss" response.

Any tip or help is appreciated.

Thank you
