Hi!
I'm running OpenVPN
2.0rc17 on Windows XP Pro with SP2. No third-party
firewalls is installed and the built-in firewall in XP is
disabled for the TAP interface. I'm connecting to a remote server and according
to the log a subnet is allocated (10.8.0.28/30). When using ip-win32 dynamic I
can see in windump and ethereal that Windows sends a DHCP request and 10.8.0.29
sends a DHCP offer. This is repeated four times.
Somehow Windows
ignores the DHCP offer and assign an IP in the 169.254.x.x
range.
I also tried using
ip-win32 manual configuration with 10.8.0.30/30 and the route is added for
10.8.0.0/24 via 10.8,0.29. When I try to ping the host at 10.8.0.1 only ARP
request is transmitted. For every ping an ARP request is sent asking for MAC of
10.8.0.29 and the reply coming in. Nothing shows up in the ARP
table.
It seems like
everything sent to the interface is ignored.
I tried the same
configuration in VMWare and Windows 2000 with success.
Any hints on
why the packets drop?
