on
behalf of Emmanuel...
It is actually worst that ever : using bridged
connection and tap devices, the tunnel is up, but I cannot ping ANYTHING (not
even my local tap device IP...).
Any idea what to do next
?

Are
you using "dev tap" or "dev tun" in your config file?
What
I've learned ....(see my posts in last week - "OpenVPN with XP client - can
ping both ends but do little else !")....
....is that for Windows clients its better to use
"dev tap" and implement a network bridge between your real and virtual Network
Adapter Cards on the target LAN
your
XP box then becomes a virtual member of your LAN, and you do all the sexy
things like map network drives etc.
Hi everyone ![smile.gif]()
I've been setting up a VPN server
on a Fedora C2 box (openvpn V2.b11) for the last, hu, 3 weeks ! The FC2 is a
gateway for our LAN (2 network interfaces, eth0 public IP, eth1 private IP),
and I want to access my lan from a remote road warrior WinXPSP2 box (nobody's
perfect ).
After a lot of fights with my server, I did
eventually succeeded to ping accross the tunnel I had created, and I can ping
all computers on my LAN from my win box. Only problem : I cannot map any
network drives from any computer of my LAN... I get the error :
"System error 53 occured ; network path not found" (well, this is what
it means cos I've translated it from french
)
Do I need to add specific iptables rules to allow network drives
mapping through my gateway ?
Thanks for any advices you could give me,
I would be very grateful !
