Hi, I have a Server with multiple IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Only on one specific address (IPv4 and IPv6) should the VPN UDP Server listen on.
My Server: * Debian Jessie * OpenVPN 2.3.4 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [MH] [IPv6] built on Dec 1 2014 I have figured out, that by specifying "proto udp6" and no "local" argument OpenVPN becomes a DualStack Server but it listen on all addresses the Server has. So that is not what I wanted. By setting the "local" option, once or twice, I get always a fatal error like the ones below. I can only set an IPv6 address after the "local" statement but then OpenVPN only listen on that IPv6 and not on IPv4. (Well this is somewhat expected.) I have also tried the multihome option, but with no further luck. (I have Linux debian Kernel 3.16) *** RESOLVE: Cannot resolve host address: **some-host-dns-name**: Name or service not known Exiting due to fatal error *** *** RESOLVE: Cannot resolve host address: **hosts-IPv4-address**: Address family for hostname not supported Exiting due to fatal error *** So the question is, how is it possible that OpenVPN listens on a certain IPv4 and IPv6 address at the same time? Thank you ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Openvpn-users mailing list Openvpn-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users
