Access Linux OpenVPN server from XP on parallels
Posted: Mon Apr 23, 2012 1:01 pm
by McLinux
I have installed OpenVPN on Ubuntu Server
ip 192.168.1.65
OpenVPN 10.8.0.1
From XP I can ping both ip's.
When I configure in client.conf remote = 192.168.1.65 1194 I can ssh 10.8.0.1.
When I configure my internet ip and start the client it stops with:
Mon Apr 23 14:53:47 2012 read UDPv4: Connection reset by peer (WSAECONNRESET) (c
ode=10054)
I disabled the XP firewall.
On Windows route print:

Hi Mclinux,
Code: Select all
https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=22193
Suggests:
Code: Select all
iptables -A INPUT -i tun+ -j ACCEPT
# Allow TUN interface connections to be forwarded through other interfaces
iptables -A FORWARD -i tun+ -j ACCEPT
This might be needed because your iptables does not seem to allow traffic input on your tun device.
if you flush your iptables firewall, can you connect to vpn then ?
For the users of parallels on mac (using windows xp) openvpn client works better in "BRIDGING" mode if i remember correctly.
Good luck,
Frank Uittenbosch

What I not understand is that in the the output of iptables is no tun interface.

Hi Mclinux,
The reason you can't connect is because your default iptables policy on your input interface is DROP.
Ergo, if you dont specify allow rules, everything is denied.
in order to test this you should try:
Code: Select all
#These 3 lines reset the default policy to ACCEPT on interfaces
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
iptables --flush
iptables --table filter --flush
iptables --table nat --flush
iptables --table mangle --flush
iptables --table filter --delete-chain
iptables --table nat --delete-chain
iptables --table mangle --delete-chain
iptables --table filter --zero
iptables --table nat --zero
iptables --table mangle --zero
and now try to connect & ping the server again.
You SHOULD at least be able to ping it now.
If that works, you have localized the problem in your iptables configuration.
i noticed you had 1094 as openvpn in your firewall config, is that correct ? shouldnt that be 1194 ? (UDP)

Hi Frank,
Now I can indeed ping the server on both 10.8.0.1 and 192.168.1.65.
I have added the next lines for logging:
Code: Select all
# Log the rest of the incoming messages (all of which are dropped)
# with a maximum of 15 log entries per minute
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -m limit --limit 15/minute -j LOG \
--log-level 7 --log-prefix "Dropped by firewall: "
/sbin/iptables -A OUTPUT -m limit --limit 15/minute -j LOG \
--log-level 7 --log-prefix "Dropped by firewall: "
The log:

The ip-address if the Mac is 192.168.1.66. Strange that not 10.8.0.1 comes to the server.

The port number 1094 in the firewall is correct. I tried another port. I have changed the server and cllient to this port and UDP.

Hi Mclinux,
In your log, i'm only seeing ssh (22) traffic and return ports !
Im not seeing any openvpn connection attempt!
2 questions,
Did you try to connect to openvpn with this log active ?
you might want to do:
while trying to connect with vpn.
Be sure to stop your ssh connection, otherwise you might flood your logs.
and,
please do :
Code: Select all
netstat -ano |grep 1194 (or 1094, depending on the port you've activated it on.
That should return something like:
Code: Select all
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1194 0.0.0.0:* off (0.00/0/0)
if not, your openvpn server might not be running

Hi Frank,
I have no /var/log/messages
netstat -ano |grep 1094
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1094 0.0.0.0:* off (0.00/0/0)
root@file-server:/var/log#
Maybe this is a problem. I installed OpenVPN on Ubuntu with apt-get and have version 2.2.
On Windows I have version 2.0.

Hi McLinux,
So try to download the new client of openvpn then.
And try to find out on your server where the openvpn log is, that will make your life a lot easy-er when trying to troubleshoot issues like this.

Sorry that I did not pay attention to the version numbers. But now I have version OpenVPN 2.3-alpha1 on both server (Ubuntu server) and client (Windows XP).
I have now a log openvpn logfile.

Hi Mclinux,
We are getting there!
so if i understand correctly by the logs, you have a connection now, but you can't ping BEYOND the openvpn server ?
Can you ping the server itself ?
And did you enable ip_forwarding on your openvpn server ? (Depending on your linux distro)
ow, and:
Code: Select all
REJECT all -- anywhere anywhere reject-with icmp-port-unreachable
rejects all forwarding, you might want to split this project up in at least 2 things,
phase 1, get your openvpn connection going, and setup your rules just for that.
phase 2, build your actual firewall with iptables.
Hope this helps!

Hi Frank,
I did indeed ip_forwarding:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
The next code i do not understand why I should use it:
Code: Select all
REJECT all -- anywhere anywhere reject-with icmp-port-unreachable
Can OpenVPN function without port any forwarding?
When OpenVPN is not running on the client I can both ping 192.168.1.65 and 10.8.0.1. After starting I can't ping them both, even when the Windows firewall is disabled.
On my Windows machine route print:

Hi Mclinux.
Well, that puts me kinda out of options to explore.
You might try to use a NAT forwarding on your server, this would help if your server doesn't know the way back properly.
something like:
Code: Select all
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -d 10.8.0.1/24 -j MASQUERADE
Otherwise i'll need to take a look at it by trying it myself...
