Hi All Thanks Charles for pointing me in the correct direction. The problem (omitting fat fingers and a bad ip address) was indeed UDP. Once we switched to TCP it "just worked". Wonderful. I have two more questions though. I now have a working "server.conf" file (on the server funnily enough) that works well for the connection I have been testing. If I add more clients into the mix, am I right in thinking that they will all be dealt with by the same server.conf with IP addresses allocated to them from the pool we have defined in the server-bridge parameter or do we have to have a separate "conf" file for each client. If the former is the case, is there any way I can generate a separate log file for each connection? Thanks again and Regards Nigel. > -----Original Message----- > From: openvpn-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:openvpn-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On > Behalf Of Charles Duffy > Sent: Thursday, 8 June 2006 02:10 > To: openvpn-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: [Openvpn-users] Connection problems > > I'd start by using ethereal to watch the packets from the > server to the > client and determine if they're making it out the external gateway of > the server's network (presuming, of course, that that gateway is a > platform capable of *running* ethereal, tcpdump or such), and > likewise > to validate that those same packets are making it into the client's > network and eventually the client itself. > > As a workaround (to allow you to validate that OpenVPN is otherwise > configured correctly), it might be useful to try switching to > TCP mode > (which is less likely to have firewall issues of this sort) > temporarily. > > > > _______________________________________________ > Openvpn-users mailing list > Openvpn-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users > > -- > This message has been scanned for viruses and > dangerous content by MailScanner, and is > believed to be clean. > > -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ Openvpn-users mailing list Openvpn-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users |
