Amahi Forums

Please help me, i want buy a ipsec VPN, but first i will be able to bridging with my local LAN.

I follow this guide http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/VPN_Bridging

But not works

And when i follow this http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-sourc ... inuxscript the eth0 stop workink.

I'm using fedora express CD.

Please help me, its very important.

My lan is 192.168.0.1
HDA is 192.168.0.10

The VPN without bridging works fine. But i need to make the vpn clients member of the local lan so with some ip subnet.

Not too much help in this area. I will say that we no longer support Fedora 14, so you might want to consider Ubuntu.

The best I can recommend is the wiki, which it already appears you have tried. Consider switching from VPN to IPSec VPN for Amahi. It might work better for you.

Now i have installed amahi on ubuntu 12, if i follow this guide http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/VPN_Bridging you confirm me that i can ping the pc in my lan from vpn client?

Understand you are using Ubuntu. Did you install the OpenVPN app?

Not sure what you are asking. Please clarify if you are asking for help, specifically what you need.

Ok sorry

i have installed open-vpn in amahi on ubuntu.

Ip of amahi is 192.168.0.50

It work, and from external network i can connect to vpn and ping 192.168.0.50

I also need to ping other machines on local lan (example 192.168.0.5)

i have install bridge-utility and configure it with this guide but not work http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/VPN_Bridging

how can i configure for ping the lan ip in some subnet of amahi server? (192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.5 ecc.)

(found this on another part of the vpn forum)

Not strictly true.

Providing your amahi server is configured to forward then packets from the VPN will arrive at the other servers.
(http://www.ducea.com/2006/08/01/how-to- ... -in-linux/)

The issues is then the return packets will be delivered to your Default gateway not the tunnel endpoint.

so assuming your hda is 192.168.4.1 and your tunnel end point is 10.8.0.1 then something like

route add -net 10.8.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.4.1

and you will have access to that server from your VPN.

Alternative

You can also add the redirect to your current default router providing it sophisticated enough to support it.
this will provide access to all you home LAN from the vpn
