[Openvpn-users] OpenVPN and Qwest MSN DSL

[Mark Lubratt <mark.lubratt@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello!

I'm trying to setup a VPN connection between my Mac Powerbook and my 
home network.  The homenetwork is on Qwest MSN DSL and I have DynDNS 
setup for the network.  Obviously, the Powerbook can be just about 
anywhere on the internet.

My network has the following topology:

1.	Internet
2.	MSN DSL Modem (Arescom)
3.	OpenBSD 3.7 firewall running PF (setup to forward port 1194 to 
192.168.10.2)
4.	LAN 1 (192.168.10.0/24)
5.	SMC Barricade g Wireless Router/Firewall (192.168.10.2:  setup to 
forward port 1194 to 192.168.2.10)
6.	LAN 2 (192.168.2.0/24)
7.	OpenVPN Server (192.168.2.10:1194)

I have installed OpenVPN on my Powerbook and on my Gentoo Linux system 
on LAN 2 (192.168.2.10).  I've made all the necessary certificates and 
I can establish a connection between my Powerbook and the Gentoo system 
(both on LAN 2) by telling the client to connect to the WAN IP address 
of the SMC.  I've also attached the Powerbook to LAN 1 and have been 
able to connect.

However, when I try to connect from the internet, I only get "Waiting 
for server response."  I'm pretty sure that I have PF configured 
properly, but just to be sure, I connected the SMC Barricade directly 
to the DSL modem.  That didn't help.  So, I'm left wondering if 
Qwest/MSN is dropping my packets.  Is there a way that I can tell if 
they're blocking my attempts to establish this connection?

Thanks!
Mark
