OpenVPN Server not routing local websites

lastb0isct

I checked the firewall status and its turned inactive:

lastb0isct@miniserver:~$ sudo ufw status
[sudo] password for lastb0isct:
Status: inactive

Any other ideas?

It is interesting that the port in your screen capture of your firewall rule is 11111 and not 1194. Wonder if that has something to do with it? Pretty new to pfSense myself, so I'm not sure.

What VPN client are you using to connect with? I was trying to connect with Tunnelblick, but could not get it to work well. After I switched over to Viscosity VPN client, I haven't had any other problems.

Lets get a few things out of the way:

Post a network map, so we know how things are connected
What is the LAN IP of your PFsense box?
Post the routing table of your server. Is the IP still 192.168.1.62?
Post the routing table of your connected client
What port is your app listening on (80?, 8080?, 8081?, 8082?)?
From the client, does the port responds via telnet?
Post a traceroute from the client to the server

LAN IP of pfSense Box: 192.168.1.2
Ports of Server = 8080, 8081, 8082
It responds via telnet on all of those ports

Derelict

A network diagram without at least subnets and interface addresses is about worthless.

See the diagram in my sig for an example of something that might help people solve your problem.

marvosa

I agree with Derelict, a network map with IP info would be helpful. Also, those are not routing tables… you've given us a list of what is connected. The command you're looking for is "netstat -r"

It looks like you have a successful connections to port 8080:

tcp 0 0 192.168.1.62:http-alt 192.168.10.2:64268 ESTABLISHED
tcp 0 0 192.168.1.62:http-alt 192.168.10.2:64266 ESTABLISHED

but may be having issues with 8082.

These connections are more telling though:

tcp 0 0 192.168.1.62:tproxy 192.168.10.2:64229 ESTABLISHED
tcp 0 0 192.168.1.62:tproxy 192.168.10.2:64227 ESTABLISHED
tcp 0 0 192.168.1.62:tproxy 192.168.10.2:64230 ESTABLISHED

"tproxy" is apparently short for "Transparent Proxy", so it looks like you have squid running in transparent mode and it's intercepting/redirecting your requests. Start by disabling squid.

Here is the netstat -r from the server:

Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface

For further testing, since i finally had the opportunity to go to a friends place and test out my VPN from my laptop I was able to hit the server just fine. I believe it might be an issues with the android client i'm using. The only thing that wasn't working from my laptop AND my android and all other clients is forwarding traffic to the internet. I can't get any external websites now. I'm sure thats a rule somewhere or a setting that I need to change.

Well, you have an any/any rule on your OpenVPN tab, so that rules out a firewall issue. So, that leaves routing, DNS or NAT. Go through the troubleshooting progression again.

Thanks for all the help. I'll diagnose again in a bit. Had an issue last night where my pfsense box froze and lost a few settings so i will have to go back in and fix everything up again.

Should have configured autobackup…
