VPN connection using openvpn and openssl certs
Hi Guys, I have just simple question in regards to the OpenVPN connections. When using a Certificates and "server" directive in openvpn configuration file : server 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0 the vpn tunnel is created is follows: SERVER: inet addr:192.168.0.1 P-t-P:192.168.0.2 Mask:255.255.255.255 CLIENT: inet addr:192.168.0.6 P-t-P:192.168.0.5 Mask:255.255.255.255 What is a logic behind a IP address given to the client from the server. Why first client connected to SERVER does not get 192.168.0.2 IP address but it gets 192.168.0.6 instead? I'm sure that there is a good explanation for that and I'm just missing something. thank you -- linuksos http://www.linuxconfig.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
