bridging 2 neworks with multiple pc on either end

Post by tallone » Sat Apr 21, 2012 8:22 am

Hi There, I Have the following network set up...My home network is on 10.0.0.1 - 10.0.0.49/24, my remote network is on 10.0.0.100 - 10.0.0.150/24, openvpn has an address pool of 10.0.0.50 - 10.0.0.60/24 and both remote and home accesses the internet using dsl. My problem is than when trying to connect from the client it keeps giving errors and 'waiting for tun/tap interface to come up. If I change the remote network from 10.0.0.100/24 to 11.0.0.100/24 then the connection work perfectly (obviosly I cannot browse the pc behind the remote pc making the connection and that is the problem). I am using this for lan gaming between 2 sites and with different networks it works perfectly. Is open vpn not suppose to 'Bridge' the 2 networks. I could use RAS on the remote machine but did not think it would be required. Please help as I would like to browse pc on both ends of the network using 1 ip adresss scheme.
Thanks

hi there,

just to remind you that members answering/helping users are NOT paid (including myself)
if you want paid support check the AS version

to your problem now,

first post your configs,
openvpn needs special config for bridging mode,without your config i can only guess whats wrong..
