Hello, First, sorry for posting here but the OpenVPN forum is full of spam/porn.
I would like to use OpenVPN to secure a wireless connection when I am on the road and using an non-encrypted link. Here's the setup. The server has a fixed IP address and runs on OpenBSD 4.1. The client is a Windows XP SP2 Home. Thus, I want to reroute all the traffic from the laptop through the VPN network. The problem that I have is that I see this in the log: Thu Oct 11 11:00:52 2007 qlabobsd.caltech.edu/131.215.9.207:2208 MULTI: bad source address from client [131.215.9.207], packed dropped I believe the problem comes from the fact that my windows machine sends a return address as 131.215.9.207 instead of the (good) 10.8.0.6. How do I fix that? Also, does OpenVPN do the NAT by itself or do I need to set it myself? If I need to set it myself, any pointer? (I'm using OpenBSD). I've tried to google the problem quite a bit, bit I could not find anything relevant. I have been using this site: http://blog.innerewut.de/2005/07/04/openvpn-2-0-on-openbsd Which describes what I want to do, except that they have OpenBSD on the laptop. I also use the following site to troubleshoot, without much avail: http://openvpn.net/howto.html For your information, here's the config files: --client-- client dev tun0 dev-node OpenVPN proto udp remote qlabobsd.dyndns.org 1194 resolv-retry infinite nobind persist-key persist-tun ca ca.crt cert client_antoine.crt key client_antoine.key ns-cert-type server comp-lzo verb 3 --server-- port 1194 proto udp dev tun0 ca ca.crt cert server.crt key server.key dh dh2048.pem server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0 ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt push "redirect-gateway def1" push "dhcp-option DNS 10.8.0.1" push "dhcp-option WINS 10.8.0.1" keepalive 10 120 comp-lzo max-clients 3 user _openvpn group _openvpn persist-key persist-tun status openvpn-status.log verb 3 -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/-OpenVPN--MULTI%3A-bad-source-address-from-client--131.215.9.207--tf4609149.html#a13161860 Sent from the openbsd user - misc mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
