Title: Windows 7 routing issues Post by: rex007can on Tuesday 22 February 2011, 02:34:35 am The client config file is
client dev tap proto udp remote ***.***.***.*** resolv-retry infinite nobind persist-key persist-tun ca vpn.pem auth-user-pass comp-lzo route-method exe route-delay 2 script-security 2 system OpenVPN config (on Endian Firewall) AUTH_TYPE=psk CLIENT_TO_CLIENT=on DOMAIN=.... DROP_DHCP=on GLOBAL_DNS=192.168.192.12,192.168.192.13 GLOBAL_NETWORKS=192.168.192.0/24 OPENVPN_ENABLED=on PORT=1194 PROTOCOL=udp PURPLE_DEVICE=tap0 PURPLE_IP_BEGIN=192.168.192.20 PURPLE_IP_END=192.168.192.24 PURPLE_NET= PUSH_DOMAIN=on PUSH_GLOBAL_DNS=on PUSH_GLOBAL_NETWORKS=on I've narrowed down the issue to a route added to the client. It doesn't do this if the client is XP or Linux. But if the client is Windows7, it adds a route like this 192.168.192.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.192.20 metric1 (192.168.192.20 is the IP assigned to the client by the VPN server) And then it also adds 192.168.192.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.192.248 metric31 This creates a conflict and Windows doesn't route packets to the VPN gateway, so nothing gets through. If I manually delete the rout route delete 192.168.192.0 Then everything starts working properly. I don't know why Windows7 adds the extra route, or why it puts a metric of 31 on the VPN route.

Have you found any more information regarding this? Title: Re: Windows 7 routing issues Post by: jeliasson on Wednesday 11 May 2011, 03:10:50 am Hey rex007can,
I came across an article by jpluimers who also have noticed this issue on a forum thread. Since I had the same setup, eventought I would not imagine that that would be the issue, I simply disabled promiscous mode on the VMware ESXi host - and it's not working just fine. Furthermore, I also removed the SNAT-rule (From OpenVPN to the green-zone) and it's working fine without it aswell. I hope this helps the rest of you that are experiencing this problem! :) Forum link: http ://wiert.wordpress.com/2010/10/12/endian-firewall-connected-client-can-access-efw-but-no-other-hosts/ Remove spaces in link above Title: Re: Windows 7 routing issues Post by: Alishba on Monday 16 May 2011, 08:41:13 pm http://dashquid.com (http://dashquid.com)
