Thanks for taking the time to help me
Im able to connect to the VPN server just fine but im not able to communicate with the private LAN from the client PC and vice versa
Im able to ping from
client PC > OpenVPN Server IP
Private LAN > OpenVPN Server IP
BUT NOT
client PC > Private LAN
Private LAN > Client PC
Here is the network info
Private LAN: 10.0.0.0/24
-> Ping Target: 10.0.0.253
OpenVPN LAN: 10.1.0.0/24
-> Server IP: 10.1.0.1
Client IP: 192.168.10.105/24
Thinking its a gateway issue i checked the ip info on the client PC and saw this
Default Gateway: (empty)
I changed the server.ovpn file to redirect all traffic through the VPN(in an attempt to get a propper gateway on the connection)
push "redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp"
The gateway changed to 10.1.0.5(unpingable) This did not fix the issue
Here is the server file:
local 10.0.0.11
port 1194
proto tcp
dev tun
dev-node "tap-bridge"
ca "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\easy-rsa\\keys\\ca.crt"

key "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\easy-rsa\\keys\\server.key" # This file should be kept secret
dh "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\easy-rsa\\keys\\dh1024.pem"
