[Openvpn-users] connection works intermittently

Hi
 
I've got a little problem with my VPN connection
 
The VPN connection works intermittently. I'm not sure but I think I have to wait 24h to reconnect after a connection.
When the connection doesn't work
 
 
The problem can be fixed by restarting the DSL connection on the server (which is stranger because it's a fixed IP) but it's tiresome and I can't do it everyday.
 
 
Have I forgot an option in one of my configs ?
Have you ever heard of a problem like this ?
 
 
Here are all the details :
- DSL connexion with fixed IP on server side
- DSL connexion with dynamic IP on client side
 
- SERVER : Linux Debian
config :

dev tun1
local 213.X.X.X
port 8147
proto udp
server 10.4.0.0 255.255.255.0
client-to-client
dh /etc/ssl/dh1024.pem
ca /etc/ssl/certs/autorite-ca.crt
cert /etc/ssl/server.crt
key /etc/ssl/private/serverPrivate.key
tun-mtu 1500
mssfix
auth-user-pass-verify /etc/openvpn/validateUser.sh via-file

keepalive 10 120
push "route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0"

log :
The server doesn't log anything when the connection doesn't work (it logs when it's working)
- CLIENT : Windows XP
config :
