When --redirect-gateway is used, OpenVPN saves the old default gw before it deletes it and adds its own. When OpenVPN detects that it has lost connectivity (due to your IP change), it will delete the new route it had had added, re-add your old one. If this happends, you will now end up with two default routes, your new correct one, and the old one re-added by OpenVPN. When OpenVPN now re-connects it will try to save the old dafault gateway, and maybe it's saving the wrong one, before it deletes them, which would cause your routes to net_gateway to use the wrong gw. Try using --redirect-gatway def1 instead to see if that makes any diffrence. -- _____________________________________________________________ Mathias Sundman (^) ASCII Ribbon Campaign OpenVPN GUI for Windows X NO HTML/RTF in e-mail http://www.nilings.se/openvpn / \ NO Word docs in e-mail ____________________________________________ Openvpn-users mailing list Openvpn-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users |
