I have successfully set up a VPN connection between a Windows 8 client and my Ubuntu server running OpenVPN.
However, I just cannot get IP forwarding to work.
I have adjusted all settings as desribed here but whenever I open a website in my browser I still have the same IP and traffic isn't routed over the server's IP.
I made sure that net/ipv4/ip_forward=1
and that I restarted the server and the client after updates in the config.
Here's an extract of my server.conf:
proto udp
dev tun
server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
push "redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp"
Extract of the client.ovpn:
client
dev tun
push "dhcp-option DNS 10.8.0.1"
All certificate files are set correctly and I can connect to the VPN with my Windows client. Just the IP forwarding is not working. Any ideas?
