Re: [Openvpn-users] Win2k setup question

[Andrew Clarke <andrew@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you very much for your response, James.  I've added "local 
71.218.70.69" to my .ovpn file (I also tried .65) but am still having 
the same problems.  The ipconfig /all output I've included below has 
local 71.218.70.69 in the .ovpn file.

I also tried adding nobind and got the following line repeating several 
hundred times per second:

Wed Jul 21 17:58:20 2004 read UDPv4: Invalid argument (WSAEINVAL) 
(code=10022)

So all in all I'm still having trouble!  When I fire up my client, the 
two computers "see" each other on the VPN and I see packets being 
transferred via RWRWRWRWRRW etc. showing up in the output, but I can't 
ping or do anything actually useful.  I guess because my server virtual 
adapter doesn't have an IP address assigned to it!

Thanks again,
- Andrew.
