OpenVPN Support Forum

Hi
I am new to openvpn.
I was wondering am I able to setup openvpn server and client on windows 7 32bit.
Note: Both the server and client are on the same domain network. (eg.xxxx.org)
If so, should i use routing or bridging for my case.

In mytesting, i am able to assign my server with ip address 10.8.0.1 using routing.
However, i am not able to sucessfully establish a connection for my client side.
Please any advice are welcome.

Note: Both the server and client are on the same domain network. (eg.xxxx.org)

Are they on the same subnet?

Please post server and client configs.

Thank you for the reply.

hi there,

10.8.0.1 is the openvpn virtual interface address..

you must use the lan ip of your server to connect.

what lan ips your pcs have?
