Hi, I have a windows 2003 server, running as an openvpn _client_ with the following setup:
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 7: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 208.xx.xx.224 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.128 IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 208.xx.xx.223 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.128 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 208.xx.xx.129 I want to let the vpn server to talk to this client over the tunnel, so I am trying to get the client to connect to the server via the .224 address (so I can set a tunneled route for the .223 one). I however can not get it to work. I specified 'local 208.xx.xx.224' and the connection logs properly say: Fri Oct 10 05:34:23 2008 us=324594 UDPv4 link local: 208.xx.xx.224 Fri Oct 10 05:34:23 2008 us=324613 UDPv4 link remote: ss.ss.ss.ss:1194 Yet the server receives packets from .223. Wireshark also shows packets being directly sent with a .223 source address. Same happens if I try to use the windows utility: pingpath -i 208.xx.xx.224 <remote host>. Both wireshark and the remote hos see icmp packets labeled from .223 Is this a known issue with windows, and are there any know workarounds? Or the second IP is useless to me on this platform? Thank you
