Hi

Newbie here, I'm running openvpn 2.0 on Debian. server is on the 192.168.0.0 network and can reach 192.168.20.0 network
I have a firewall rule allowing all udp traffic on port 1194 into the server. I would like to be able to fire up the openvpn client on my windows
desktop at home and directly reach any machine on the 192.168.0.0 or 192.168.20.0 networks.


My configuration is as below...unfortunately, I can only reach 192.168.0.x (my work desktop) and nothing else.
obviously that is greatly inconvenient and not useful for more than ssh access.

Do systems on 192.168.20.x have a reverse route (such that they send packets for 10.69.0.0/24 back to the VPN server)? Use Ethereal or a similar tool while pinging a system on 192.168.20.x to see if the packets make it out of the server, and (if so) whether the return packets make it back the other way.


I'm also highly confused as to why my openvpn server should have ip address 10.69.0.1 but the client shows
a gateway of 10.69.0.9 ... further while the server config file indicated server will take 10.69.0.1 for itself,
I'm seeing it take 10.69.0.2 instead!

Don't worry -- all this is normal. See http://openvpn.net/faq.html#slash30
