[Solved] OpenVPN 1.10.0 reverse vpn problems

Post by ispyisail »

Hi all

VPN now only works from client to sever not the other way round.

Image

Routing table on the OpenVPN server

Image

Its missing an entry, in my case it should also have

Code: Select all

192.168.14.0/255.255.255.0           tun0          *             0
Makes me wonder if OpenVPN is picking up any commands from gargoyle GUI?

Solved / Work around

When you first create a OpenVPN server config make sure you also add all the required client configs before hitting save.

In my mind you should be able to add clients latter and have the new client configs edit the routing table?

One of the problems I was using two different config methods, (unknown to me) Sometimes it worked sometimes it didn't.
