openvpn-bridge, does it really work?
« on: April 10, 2010, 02:50:45 AM »
Hi, I implemented the contrib openvpn-bridge along with the phpki/bridge following the wiki. Everything normal so far, I have my certificates ready, my configs all working as the the examples... but no joy when trying to connect.
The logs also give me no clues to where my problem may be.
Has anyone succeed with this contrib?

PS. Please don't advise me to open bugs in the bugtracker.

Thanks Jester,
I just noticed someone else is having some issues with 7, which is what I'm using.

well.. if everything is working on SME's side, you should search on the others..

is SME server onyl or server and gateway? do you have a firewall in front of it? did you forward the right ports? what about the client? did you search info on the client?

how do you expect we can help you if you don't tell us anything?

you're only saying "it doesn't work"
