I installed OpenVPN as written up by jeremywillden. in this post. Installed OpenVPN for Windows with the security certs. I forwarded my chosen port on my router to my PIAF box, but could not connect. Hmm...ok, I need to set up an iptables rule on the pbx. The only rule I could come up with to allow access is:
Code:
-A INPUT -p udp -m udp --dport 27539 -j ACCEPT
- Do I even need a iptables rule? I ask, because there was no mention of needing a rule for access.
- If I do, can the above listed rule be tighted up? It doesn't sit well with me to have this port wide open like it is. Is it okay as it is?
- When I restart the box, the list of programs/daemons shows OpenVPN as Failed instead of OK, but it still works, Is this okay? Is there something that I can correct/add to clear this up?
