I apologize ahead of time, but I've posted this multiple times on the 
OpenVPN-Users list as well as the forum and no one has said a word to me 
about fixing my problem.  I'm getting desperate and I'm going insane because
of this problem.


The Problem
-----------
When I VPN in, I can ping everything on my network.  I can SSH into my UNIX
boxes.  I can connect to web servers running on my internal machines.  When
I attempt to connect to a Windows share, nothing happens for about 3
minutes.  I am then presented with a Windows authentication dialog.  I can't
type in my current credentials because Windows is awesome and won't let you
try them again.  Trying other credentials does nothing.

I also found that if I hit a site hosted on an IIS server that requires
authentication, the web browser tries for about 3 minutes and then gives a
'page cannot be displayed error'.

This leads me to believe that something is being lost with the
authentication protocol.


The Setup
---------
This originally started happening with an OpenVPN 2.0.6 server running on
OpenBSD 3.8.  The clients were using Windows XP SP2 with I believe the 2.0.6
GUI client.

I've since upgraded and tried many different configurations, including:

* OpenVPN 2.0.9 server on OpenBSD 3.8
* OpenVPN 2.0.9 server on OpenBSD 4.0
* OpenVPN 2.0.9 client
* OpenVPN 2.0.9 server on Ubuntu Edgy

The weirdest part is that with the original configuration worked for 6
months and then spontaneously stopped working.  My guess is that a Windows
patch killed it, but I'm surprised that no one else has experienced this.

I've attached my current configuration files.  This is for the 2.0.9 client
GUI, 2.0.9 server on Edgy behind an OpenBSD 4.0 firewall.  The log from the
client is also provided.

Our network's subnet is 192.168.1.0/24 and our VPN subnet is
192.168.10.0/24.

Again, please help.
