Different Client keys Assigned the same IP address
Posted: Tue Sep 10, 2013 5:16 pm
I created two different keys, with two different common names, everything else was identical.
When I connect from two different computers on the same LAN, each using different keys, OpenVPN seems to be assigning them the same IP address ( 10.8.0.6 ) and both connections are lost after trying to use an application that requires an ODBC connection via OpenVPN to the server.
Everything seems to work fine if only one computer is connected at a time.
I read through the server.ovpn file and didn't see anything obvious to configure that would address this issue. What did I do wrong?
The server is a virtual server at a datacenter, and the two computers are on my home network behind a cable modem and a router.
