Hi Erich,

yes you're right. Putting the server in another subnet is much easier than pushing a lot of routes.

So it seems my problem is fixed right now (took a long long time....)

Although I have to thank you the developers for such a good piece of open software!

Erich, thank you very much for your help!

Regards,
Thomas

I have two interfaces :-) and I believe most people do so.

Yes

Push routes accordingly

Divide your route in a number of adjacent routes not including the
server itself

something like

145.253.90.32/28
145.253.90.48/32
145.253.90.50/32
145.253.90.51/32
145.253.90.52/30
145.253.90.56/29

It would be easier to move the OpenVPN server away from the middle of
that subnet. That might make less routes.

cheers

Erich
