Does the VPN server also have a 10.0.0.x address? If so, you just need |
| 13 |
to tell the VPN clients that they can reach the 10.0.0.x network via the |
| 14 |
VPN, i.e. by routing through your VPN server. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
We have pretty much the same setup, with our VPN server sitting on |
| 17 |
10.1.1.1 with some other private IP address. This is the client config |
| 18 |
for the OpenVPN server: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
# cat /etc/openvpn/client-config/DEFAULT |
| 21 |
push "route 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0" |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Then you point to that in openvpn.conf (also on the server): |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
# grep client-config /etc/openvpn/openvpn.conf |
| 26 |
client-config-dir client-config |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
After that, any new client connections will just know that 10.1.1.x can |
| 29 |
be reached over the VPN. |
