Hello Group, I recently downloaded the OpenVPN 2.0 from the openvpn site and I wanted to setup a TAP device in multi-client fashion on a Windows XP box with SP2. As mentioned in the openvpn site, I selected the tap interface ( tap0 ) and the ethernet adaptor and bridged it. Also, I assigned the IP address and subnet of the ethernet adaptor to the bidge interface.
Now, if I connect more than one client to the server I get connection reset problem in few seconds just after the connection is extablished. I took the sample conf files from the sample-config-files folder. server TAP conf file: port 1194 proto tcp dev tap ca sample-keys/tmp-ca.crt cert sample-keys/server.crt key sample-keys/server.key dh sample-keys/dh1024.pem server-bridge 192.168.1.241 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.50 192.168.1.100 duplicate-cn client conf file: client dev tap proto tcp remote 192.168.1.241 1194 ca sample-keys/tmp-ca.crt cert sample-keys/client.crt key sample-keys/client.key In the above case 192.168.1.241 is the XP machine on which the TAP server is installed. Also, I tried to create more TAP adapters and created a bridge assuming that openvpn might require a pool of ceated TAP adapters. Even in this case I got "connection reset problem" just few minutes after the client gets connected the server. Am I missing any important setting in the conf file ? Thanks in advance -Prem
