I have updated the OpenVPN server configuration file to force all client traffic through the server including traffic to external internet sites from the client.
»theillustratednetwork.mvps.org/O···ovpn.txt
The following lines were added to the file.
quote:
# Added 27 April 2006...awj
# This only allows traffic between server and
# client when the client is connected.
push "redirect-gateway def1"
# Added 27 April 2006...awj
push "dhcp-option DNS 10.8.0.1"
Note the DNS address is the Buffalo WBR-G54 broadband router on my home LAN.
A change that I had to make to the Windows XP OpenVPN server to allow TCP/IP routing through the server...

I also made this change to the Windows XP OpenVPN server although I don't really think it made a difference.

Attached is a screen capture of an ipconfig /all dump and a tracert command from the local library to www.broadbandreports.com from when I first connected at the library and after connecting to my OpenVPN server. This is on an XP Pro laptop and a wireless connection to the public internet at the library...
