Re: Forward port to openvpn client

[Jorge Davila <davila@nicaraguaopensource.com>]

Johan:

May you must ask in the openvpn mailing list.

Well, check this list:

1) You must have in your firewall an open path for the tcp traffic to the 
port 3739.

2) Check the openvpn configuration files to see if the references to the 
virtual addresses are ok

3) Check in your firewall if exists an open path to tun0 virtual interface.

Hope this helps,

Jorge Dávila.
