OpenVPN Support Forum

Hey all!

I've got a OpenVPN server running on windows XP. The server has three network interfaces 192.168.12.247, 10.1.1.247 and 10.8.0.1 (TUN). My client connects to 192.168.12.247 with no issues and starts up the 10.8.0.2 (TUN) interface.

I can ping both 192.168.12.247 and 10.1.1.247 from the client with no issues. The problem comes in when I want to ping another host on the 10.1.1.0/24 network. It seems that the packets just never come back.

I'm not sure if i need to add a route somewhere or if i need to figure out if I need a NAT. Also, my knowledge of routing on windows isn't great

Can anyone help me out?

hi there,

you need to enable port forwarding to xp first.

then configure a static route to your 10.1.1.0 clients to send
packets destined for vpn subnet to your xp pc.

cheers,

Michael.
