[Openvpn-users] simple newbie routing question

["Scott A. Friedman" <friedman@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I have just installed openvpn 2.05 and have the basic setup working 
using the instructions. That is I can ping the 10.8.0.1 server from the 
10.8.0.6 client and the other way around. I want to be able to access 
additional resources on the server side. Continuing the follow the 
instructions I added the 'push' statement to the server config. This 
adds the route on the client side. Now, nothing works. I can no longer 
ping the remote 10.8.0.1 interface or the local address on the server. I 
also can no longer ping the client 10.8.0.6 from the server.

From reading other messages on this list I am assuming that the problem 
is a missing route on the server side. But what route? Everyone seems to 
have a different setup. Both of my networks are real (not behind a NAT). 
I do not have control over the gateways on either end but I do have 
control of the machines that will be accessible via the vpn (a few 
servers). I suppose that what I am missing are routes on those machines 
(which includes the openvpn machine).

My config files are the defaults - other than uncommenting the push 
statement to my server side network.

Any help or comments would be very greatly appreciated. I am not sure 
what else would be helpful to know.

Thanks,
Scott
