Re: internet traffic does not traverse openvpn server
I saw this thread and thought I would throw this in. When you want to check your VPN is working correctly, this tool comes in handy... https://www.dnsleaktest.com/ It checks to see if your DNS traffic is leaked to your ISP or if it goes through your VPN.

I think you meant "def1". I uncommented that line in my server.conf, and it certainly made a difference! I now cant'see anything through the tunnel :( I guess that counts as progress!, and I now need to examine my firewall rules.

internet traffic does not traverse openvpn server
Hi, I've set up an openvpn server and client on two machines running Wheezy, generally in line with this howto: https://wiki.debian.org/openvpn%20for%20server%20and%20client I can ping the server at 10.8.0.1, but according to whatismyip.com, using iceweasel, my local (dynamic) ip is still being shown. Clearly I'm missing something; can anyone tell me what magic incantation is necessary for all internet traffif from my local client to go over the VPN? My objective, FWIW, is for me to appear located in UK (where my openvpn server is) rather than France (where I am at present).
