[SOLVED] Outside access issue when using OpenVPN

Post by freeman656 » Sun Dec 12, 2010 3:35 pm

Hi,

I'm facing a problem when I use OpenVPN behind a router.
Indeed, my configuration is like that :

- LAN (192.168.0.0)
- Router (192.168.0.254)
- Server (192.168.0.10)
- Some PCs in the LAN
- Some PCs outside of the LAN (Internet)

When I run OpenVPN on the server (my configuration is based on the official bridging tutorial on the openvpn website), I can till access it from the LAN (http server are accessible, vpn, ftp, etc, everything is accessible), but I cannot access it any more from the outside of my LAN.

Is there any configuration that can avoid this issue ?

Thanks in advance,

Please post your client and server configurations as well as the operating system of the server and client system and the version of OpenVPN in use on both ends of the connection.

Regards,
Stephen

Hi Stephen,

Thank you for your response, but I found a solution.
The server-bridge was not well configured.

Bye,
