OpenVPN Support Forum

Hi everyone!

Well, the topic says it all pretty much.

While connected with OpenVPN on my Android to a VPN Server I cannot see or connect to a local SMB Share (on a NAS-Drive).

I guess this is because even local traffic is routed through the VPN?

Is there a way to fix this on Android?

Thanks!

It depends on which VPN server you are connected to ..

would you please care to elaborate on that? Is it a parameter that is defined in the configs?

I would be very grateful for any hints

I refer you to my last comment ..

Still, you speak in riddles. I require substantial help.

It is a simple enough question ..

I'm not quite sure what kind of data your require. I assume you refer to the protocol? Here is what I deem relevant:

Protocol: TCPv4
Port: 443

from the config:

dev tun
nobin
persist-key
persist-tun
remote-cert-tls server

nobin

sorry - I misstyped. Its meant to be "nobind"

HOWTO: Request Help !

Sorry, TinCanTech. Usually I'm not as dense.

Still, I thought about posting extensive config files and logs, but I fail to see the purpose (opposed to the "How to request help"-thread). Am I wrong? Even more, as you write in your thread, that one shall not include public information about the server. But why is it then of importance to what server I'm connected - besides basic configurations as already posted above?

However, my "OpenVPN Connect" version (for Android) is 1.1.17 (build 76). Core 3.0.12 armv7a.

Does this suffice?

Thank you

Add a route for your NAS drive, see if that works.
