Some clients can ping lan some can't.

Rico

Do you share the username and cert or are both unique?

-Rico

careymichael

In this case the username and cert are the same between the sessions. I can create some unique users and certs and test. We would like to have the same user have multiple sessions though which would have the same username and cert.

careymichael

@Rico I also created a new user and I was able to log in with that user/cert (User1). I tried to login using a different user / cert (User2) on a different machine and that user couldn't ping anything. It seems for the most part that it can't have more than one user. Both are connected. Only one can pass traffic.

If I ping a live host behind the vpn and run a packet capture on on the openvpn interface on the pfsense.

User1 I see 10.200.4.3 -> 10.200.0.5 10.200.4.3 <- 10.200.0.5
User2 I only see 10.200.4.4 -> 10.200.0.5

User2 also can't ping 10.200.4.1 the gateway on the vpn network.

It also seems that if I log out of both and login with user2 then user1, user 2 is still broken user1 is not.

If I restart openvpn on the pfsense and I login with user2 then user1, user2 works and user1 doesn't.

Concurrent users is set to 75

Strict user cn matching is unchecked.

What size is this Local network 10.200.0.0 ? It's cut off in your screenshot.
Asking because for example 10.200.0.0/21 would overlap your tunnel network.

kiokoman

could it be related to this? https://forum.netgate.com/post/830456

careymichael

@kiokoman Yes this seems to be exactly the same issue. I get ERROR: FreeBSD route add command failed: external program exited with error status:1

Is there another way to fix this rather than using an external script? I'm running a new version of code 2.4.4-RELEASE-p3.

kiokoman

i realy don't know, i was searching for a solution for you and i found that post
@jimp do you already have/do you need a bug report for this ? or are you aware of a possible cause and solution ?

jimp

I doubt there is a bug here. Probably something in the setup/config but please don't ping me or other devs directly for this kind of thing.

kiokoman

sorry I'm probably putting too much enthusiasm into it :)

careymichael

@kiokoman Some more info.

If I restart openvpn the following routes are added automatically with out any connections to vpn.

10.200.4.1 link#26 UHS lo0
10.200.4.2 link#26 UH ovpns2

When the first client that connects it gets 10.200.4.2. Which is the only one that works because the route is already there.

When the second client connects it gets 10.200.4.3. The route add fails on the pfsense. If I manually add the route using route add -host 10.200.4.2 10.200.4.1. The client still can't connect to internal systems. Using packet capture I can see the traffic going inbound only on the openvpn interface. On the Lan when I add the route I can see both the sent packet and the return packet. It seems that the lan isn't routing the packet back to the openvpn interface.

The first client can ping it self and the vpn gateway 10.200.4.1.
The second client can't ping it self or the vpn gateway.

Is there a way to see why the route add is failing? It just says returned a status of 1.

kiokoman

if i understand it right ..
route add -host 10.200.4.3 -interface ovpns2
before connecting the second cllient

careymichael

@kiokoman Hehe I was just googleing that. That works. I can now ping internal hosts. Oddly enough I can now ping myself 10.200.4.3 and the gateway 10.200.4.. This I find odd because that should be L2 from my host.

Is there some way to get more logs regarding why the automatic route add is failing?

kiokoman

increase Verbosity level option for openvpn

careymichael

@kiokoman More Info.

Interesting I get the following.

Sep 23 16:43:52 openvpn 19893 ERROR: FreeBSD route add command failed: external program exited with error status: 1
Sep 23 16:43:52 openvpn 19893 /sbin/route add -net 10.200.4.0 10.200.4.2 255.255.255.0

This makes sense because 10.200.4.2 exists (not sure why). This is created automatically when openvpn is re/started on the pfsense. I haven't been able to see the error when .3 is given out. The verbosity is high and I can only see 2000 entries. So finding the route is kind of tough.

kiokoman

restart openvpn connect the first client, clear the log
connect the second client and see what is logged
