Hi there,

I am trying to set up a routed VPN using openVPN. This has worked will
a Linux to Linux setup. However, I am having problems making a Window
client communicate to the server.

This is how the error manifest itself. On the Window box, the GUI
comes up turn green and if you take the mouse over it, it will show
connected and the IP it was issued. However, I can not ping that IP.
Neither can I ping the VPN server IP.

I am wondering, can a Window box work with a routed based VPN or I
have to bridge it. Would it be possible to have a briged configuration
on the Window box and routed configuration on the server box and still
have a VPN tunnel?

Advice,

Regards,

William
