I try to set up my OpenVPN network and now I have:



  • 10.9.1.1 - server (manjaro linux)

  • 10.9.1.8 - client (ubuntu 16.04)

  • 10.9.1.12 - client

I want to set 10.9.1.8 as gateway for 10.9.1.12 client.



How to achieve that?



What I have unfortunnately done:



  1. enabled net.ipv4.ip_forward both on 10.9.1.1 and 10.9.1.8

  2. set up iptables on 10.9.1.1 with:

    You need three networks. (1) For the server (2) For the client LAN, which both client machines must be on (3) For OpenVPN between the server and its client. // You appear to be trying to use the same network 10.9.1 for everything and that cannot work.

    Your network looks wrong. Your OpenVPN client and server would usually be on different networks. You then use a third network for OpenVPN to join them. This third network cannot be used elsewhere in your network. Your third machine should be on the same LAN network as the second but this cannot be the same as the OpenVPN network.

    You need three networks. (1) For the server (2) For the client LAN, which both client machines must be on (3) For OpenVPN between the server and its client. // You appear to be trying to use the same network 10.9.1 for everything and that cannot work.
