OpenVPN Support Forum

I am attempting to use openvpn to connecto a Watchguard Firebox firewall. The details of which are here: http://customers.watchguard.com/article ... opup=false

Long story short, you unzip the package and extract both the client cert as well as the openvpn configuration file. Upon connecting, I attempt to connection to any resource on the local network and I get: DESTINATION HOST UNREACHABLE. I see that this is a somewhat common problem, but I am hoping someone can help me to understand it just a bit better. What is the log output I should be looking for and so on.

Here is the output to the screen that displays after I: sudo openvpn --config client.ovpn

Any help so I can understand this better would be awesome. I am really trying to get better at ops and system administration.

the client side config file would be helpful; there's at least one error: the client config uses

dev tap

but it should use in order to get rid of this message:

Fri Mar 2 10:28:02 2012 WARNING: 'dev-type' is used inconsistently, local='dev-type tap', remote='dev-type tun'

watchguard has a very good support,

did you contacted them about your problem?
