OpenVPN GUI Server IP

Post by DenaliX » Sat Feb 05, 2011 4:42 am

Hello,

I have been trying to figure out how to setup my OpenVPN server on the same subnet as my other pcs. Problem is that the OpenVPN server seems to always want the .1 ip address. Currently the server.ovpn file is set with the following information...

server 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0

With this setting the server runs on ip 192.168.10.1. Is there a way to change that to run the server on a different ip on the same subnet?

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply!

What I'd like to do is get the computer connected via OpenVPN to be on the same subnet as the other pc's on the network.

With this server setting it seems like the server is always going to take the address 192.168.10.1.

server 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0

Typically, the router is in the .1 address. I'd like to be able to set the OpenVPN server to an address other than .1

Thanks!
