Hi!

Sorry for the late reply, I had to leave town for the weekend. Now, this is what I get concerning the IP_forward:


server:~# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward 1 server:~#


And this is the table of routes on the server when my client is connected:


server:~# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Iface
213.214.236.80  *               255.255.255.240 U     eth0
10.0.0.0        *               255.255.255.0   U     tap0

This may be the problem, you appear to be using ethernet tunneling on the server side.


here is my set up

.....
# "dev tun" will create a routed IP tunnel,
# "dev tap" will create an ethernet tunnel.
# Use "dev tap" if you are ethernet bridging.
# If you want to control access policies
# over the VPN, you must create firewall
# rules for the the TUN/TAP interface.
# On non-Windows systems, you can give
# an explicit unit number, such as tun0.
# On Windows, use "dev-node" for this.
# On most systems, the VPN will not function
# unless you partially or fully disable
# the firewall for the TUN/TAP interface.
;dev tap
dev tun
....
....
# Configure server mode and supply a VPN subnet
# for OpenVPN to draw client addresses from.
# The server will take 10.8.0.1 for itself,
# the rest will be made available to clients.
# Each client will be able to reach the server
# on 10.8.0.1. Comment this line out if you are
# ethernet bridging. See the man page for more info.
server 172.28.1.0 255.255.255.0

this results in the following routing table, look at the tun0 interface

10.249.254.50 via 195.65.112.98 dev eth0
172.28.1.2 dev tun0  proto kernel  scope link  src 172.28.1.1
195.65.112.96/27 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 195.65.112.107
172.28.1.0/24 via 172.28.1.2 dev tun0
172.27.0.0/16 via 195.65.112.98 dev eth0
169.254.0.0/16 dev eth0  scope link
127.0.0.0/8 dev lo  scope link
default via 195.65.112.97 dev eth0

cheers

Erich
