Dear All,
First, let me apologize as it may not be a right topic to
ask here. I hope, some of you have come across and solved the same problem
already.
I’ve been having problem with OpenVPN server on my FC4
box and client on my XP box. I could connect from the client to the server but
could not ping.
My connection diagram looks like this:
Client1 <---> Mikrotik (with NAT)
<---> FC4 (OpenVPN Server) <---> CISCO 7206 <--->
Client2
|
Client3
If I tried to connect from Client3 (without passing through
the Router or Mikrotik NAT), it is fine; they can ping each other. However,
when I try to connect from Client1 (through Mikrotik 2.9 with NAT) or Client2
(from outside through my border Router with IOS 12.0), they cannot ping each
other.
For Client1, I’m quite sure, it is the problem of
Mikrotik firewall/NAT rules. For Client2, it may be the Router access-list
policy. I’m desperate in how to resolve this after searching through the
Web for a while, esp. the OpenVPN web site. I hope, some of you have had the
same experience and would help me out.
Here is my server config (on FC4):
