[rafff]

I start OpenVPN server and I finally get:
Fri Feb 18 11:16:11 2011 IFCONFIG POOL: base=10.8.0.2 size=253
Fri Feb 18 11:16:11 2011 IFCONFIG POOL LIST
Fri Feb 18 11:16:11 2011 client1,10.8.0.2
Fri Feb 18 11:16:11 2011 Initialization Sequence Completed


Then I start OpenVPN client and i get allert window:
"Connecting to client has failed."

Fri Feb 18 11:17:22 2011 There is a problem in your selection of --ifconfig endpoints [local=10.8.0.2, remote=255.255.255.0]. The local and remote VPN endpoints must exist within the same 255.255.255.252 subnet. This is a limitation of --dev tun when used with the TAP-WIN32 driver. Try 'openvpn --show-valid-subnets' option for more info.

It has to be added that I have no problems with connection between server and the other OpenVPN client installed on WinXP.

I tried to turn off firewalls on both computers, but it changed nothing.

Any suggestions?

this warning says it pretty much: something seems wrong with your client config file; compare the client config file to the working one on XP. Posting your server and client config files will also help
