<p dir="auto">I am trying to setup an OpenVPN Server on a virtual machine (vmware) inside my network to allow users to connect from home and to access local network resources.<br />
For this I have decided on pfSense as it provides the usefull GUI from which I can administer accounts, create certificates easy, export client settings.</p>
<p dir="auto">I am following this tutorial: http://sclabs.blogspot.ro/2012/05/openvpn-bridge-with-pfsense-201.html</p>
<p dir="auto">I understand that I must use the "tap" mode and create a bridge interface that can give my clients access to local resources<br />
I am running pfSense latest version  2.0.3-RELEASE (amd64), I have installed the "tap fix" and client export utility</p>
<p dir="auto">When I try to configure my server with tap I have duplicate lines for the Bridge interface and DHCP Server, also if I enter my local ip range in DHCP after save it is gone.</p>
<p dir="auto">Any idea would be much appreciated</p>
<p dir="auto">Regards<br />
