I'm running a openVPN server on openSUSE 13.2, a VPS server. However, I have problems to setup SuSEfirewall2 to work with openVPN, could anyone give me some suggesitons or guidence, thanks.:-)
It's been a while since I've used OpenVPN, but you just have to open the appropriate port. The default is UDP port 1194, but you can also use TCP 443 if absolutely necessary. You should only be using TCP if you have to use the VPN from a location where UDP is blocked.
TCP is also the option if you need to SSH tunnel, as you cannot (apparently.....) forward UDP ports. Also, just as something unrelated perhaps: you cannot forward localhost:1194 to some other localhost:1194 as a VPN client because NetworkManager will try to open 1194 for its own "management console". -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
