don't specify 'tun-mtu 2000' in the config file for serverA.

server a is in USA, while server B is in France


their default gateway is the NIC card? how can i solved this problem

raizedtozero: Why do you want to need such setup ( client ---> openvpn Server A ----> openvpn Server B ) ?

What is your purpose?

kawawang xsurfer

@janjust, how can i do it?


client -> server a -> server b


server a and server b are just linux VPS


how can i add gateway, like proper steps.. thank you very much

pls help

wow raised, you're telling na its me na kawawa that I am asking questions, where you are also here asking questions yourself.

Can I say that you are also kawawa since you are asking pitifully? Dont say such things because you are just looking at a mirror and telling kawawa to yourself.

Let us just be respectful to one another here.

If you cannot say something nice, dont say something not nice even if others cannot understand your dialect.

You are acting like you are really knowledgeable. I know you. I know what forum you come from. I come from that forum too.

We all ask questions and need answers. Just be respectful buddy. I guess I have never talked to you in any manner that is disrespectful to you.

Oh! are you hurt by my question "What is your purpose?"

How can we understand what you are doing? So by understanding what you are doing will give the helper information on how to help you.

raisedtozero: I already pointed out a few steps that you need to take (change mtu settings) ; what happens if you change the MTU setting and then try to get server A to talk to server B?


PS: please don't send me private messages (PMs); the likelihood of me helping decreases with each PM.

I wonder if you use the same server B and server A have the same server option !

i still get this error,

Tue May 18 23:34:14 2011 NOTE: unable to redirect default gateway -- Cannot read current default gateway from system

figure out what the default GW is on serverA (check '/sbin/ip route') then add to the client config file on server A.

hello,

this is the reply from Server a


169.254.0.0/16 dev venet0 scope link
default dev venet0 scope link

this server seems screwed up ; do a and check the first entry

so try using

where will i put route-gateway?


in server a client config? server config? server a or server b. tnx

some thinking on your part is required...

put this in the configuration file of the host that is throwing the 'cannot determine default gateway' message.
