hello,
i've got a debian squeeze on a server in a datacenter.
on this server i installed openvpn.
on my pc runs a windows 7. there i installed the openvpn gui.
every thing works fine. i'm able to connect to the server with openvpn gui and i also get an ip 10.8.0.6
but if i check my ip on cmyip.com, i still have the ip from my provider of dsl.
but i want to forward all the traffic with my server.
home (10.8.0.6) -> server (xx.xx.xx.xx) -> internet
so if i start openvpn gui and open google with firefox i want them to see my xx.xx.xx.xx ip from the server.
all my traffic should go through my server.
i tried a lot of iptables commands but nothing worked.
could somebody help me?
thanks!
regards
thomas

add to your server config
