OpenVPN problem

Aye, good question Dosch. It stopped working again with the last updates run. Of course. Manual edits are overwritten i guess. Gonna check asap.

Fixed. Because my VPN server does not have a DNS nameserver, the option to set DNS/WINS configuration should be set to ‘do not configure nameserver’, or: ‘useDNS = 0’

Configuration preferences now set::

autoConnect = 1
-onSystemStart = 0
useDNS = 0
-resetPrimaryInterfaceAfterDisconnect = 0
-routeAllTrafficThroughVpn = 1
-useRouteUpInsteadOfUp = 0
-keychainHasUsernameAndPassword = 1
-loadTap = 
-loadTun = 
-keepConnected = 0
-lastConnectionSucceeded = 1
-tunnelDownSoundName = Hero
-tunnelUpSoundName = Tink
-prependDomainNameToSearchDomains = 0

awesome. This works!

For Mac users, this basically did the trick:

I’m still having this problem on the Android OpenVPN client. I can connect but the only website I can access is my Yunohost server (and also for some reason Skype is going through).

Additionally, when I go to the OpenVPN page on my server, my IP shows as 10.8.0.34 (which is not my server’s IP, or my local network’s IP!), is that normal?

I also have the problem that the OpenVPN page does not register the correct IP adress.

You are not connected to the VPN server

But other then that the VPN seems to work just fine

I have the same problem as dosch, i.e. getting messange “You are not connected to the VPN server”.
Is there any solution to fix it?
