I am a newbie in VPNs and very basic understanding of networks, I bought the OpenVPN book, Building and Integrating Virtual Private Networks by Markus Feilner, but I am still stuck in a loop somewhere. I work for an animal hospital. The doctors want to be able to connect to the internal network from home (i.e. access to network drive mounts and run their veterinary application) just as if they had their computer in the office. Being the "guinea pig" in this situation, I can connect to our VPN server. I can ping the IP of the network device tun0 at 10.8.0.1 and I can ping the IP of the network device eth0 at 10.0.0.40 but I cannot ping/access any other machine in the network via the VPN. Client Setup: OpenVPN 2.1RC Windows XP Pro runing as a routed tunnel VPN Server Setup: OpenVPN 2.0.7 Gentoo Linux running as a routed tunnel single NIC I have set my verbose to "12" but I was not seeing any obvious messages. I have iptables set to accept and forward packets between eth0 and tun0. IP forwarding is turned on. When I try to run the veterinary application, which uses a telnet session in our network or map a network drive (using Samba) on a another machine, I cannot see it. My thinking is if I cannot ping it, drive mapping isn't going to matter . When I connect to the OpenVPN server itself, I can ping all the machines in my network, so I am thinking have a routing problem, but I am not sure what direction to look in next. Thanks.
