If yes, then I edited the Server.conf as below: ifconfig 20.1.0.1 255.255.255.0 mode server tls-server client-config-dir ccd ccd-exclusive And: # cat ccd/client 10.0.2.0 255.255.255.0 ifconfig-push 20.1.0.202 20.1.0.201 After it, a client whose CN name is "client", always takes IP address 20.1.0.202. Am I right? How can I give the IP address by MAC address? _______________________________________________ Openvpn-users mailing list Openvpn-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users _______________________________________________ Openvpn-users mailing list Openvpn-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users
