Re: [Openvpn-users] Re: Connecting an openvpn 2.0 client to a openvpn 1.6 server problems

[Darcy Brodie <darcy@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry for the delay.    I actually had to try rebuiling the openvpn 
version 2 on the 2.4 kernel to find the problem.  There was a conflict 
betweent the lzo and lzo-devel rpms (that I had installed as per the 
openvpn installation instructions), and the liblzo1 and liblzo1-devel 
that the rpmbuild program on Mandrake was looking for to build the 
openvpn.  I removed the lzo and lzo-devel, and installed the liblzo1 and 
liblzo1-devel, and I was then able to build and install the openvpn 
version 2 on the server.  This has solved the problem of establishing 
connection.
Now, I am working on correcting the routing issues to allow the client 
vpn, and  the computers behind the client vpn/firewall to connect to the 
vpn server, and the network behind the vpn server.  On the client, I can 
ping the tun0 device (ip 10.8.0.6) from the vpn client only.  As soon as 
I start the vpn, the workstations behind the client vpn firewall can not 
ping any of the interfaces on the firewall (eth0, eth1, or tun0), and I 
can't ping from the firewall to the workstation

And I am unable to ping the tun0 device on the server, however the 
output of ifconfig shows the device there (I get no response back from 
ping 10.8.0.1, and it doesn't seem to matter if the firewall is running 
or not!)
