OpenVPN Support Forum

Hi

I have installed openvpn on an amazon aws server and it connects and I can ping the remote network for a few seconds and then it loses ipv4 address.

The server it is doing this on is Win 2008 R1 32bit.

The server it is connecting to has many connections to it that work fine.

Any ideas why this is happening?

windows 2008 on Amazon WS with openvpn is known to have problems.
Without configuration and log files it's impossible to tell what is going... are you using "redirect-gateway" at all?
