openvpn-install VS OpenVPN

I'm trying to establish a private torrenting setup using qBittorrent on my local whitebox server machine using Ubuntu 22.04 and a Virtual Private Server (VPS) as a VPN using Ubuntu 22.04 and OpenVPN (I used https://github.com/Nyr/openvpn-install). My local machine, acting as a private tracker seedbox, has qBittorrent installed and configured to use port 15986 for inbound connections with tun0 as the network interface.

Hello, I installed an OpenVPN server on my Centos server using the easy install script here https://github.com/Nyr/openvpn-install.git My client is MacOS and it works fine for the most part BUT I need to access devices on the server's LAN When I'm using my home internet, I can access the server fine but everything that is not in the same subnet as what OpenVPN gave me does not work. When using LTE and network sharing on my computer, I can still access the server and now I can also access devices on the server's LAN that is not in the same subnet as OpenVPN. I don't understand why it behave like this and I want to always be able to access the server's LAN when connecting to the VPN.

My idea would be to create a Debian VM on Proxmox, and install OpenVPN using Nyr script (https://github.com/Nyr/openvpn-install) and create a user for each of my friends.

How you connect to your modem will depend on the device you are using, but for windows laptops as an example you download the OpenVPN program and input your modem details there, much like you would any other vpn service. I think there would be some guides on youtube. https://openvpn.net/

I just started playing with CloudConnexa for remotely managing my second pFSense. Really nice and is free for up to 3 concurrent users. https://openvpn.net. Can also self-host OpenVPN access server with a free 2 concurrent license.

If anyone is being blocked check out free OpenVPN

It is likely an issue with the 'cipher' options, if any, that are in your ".opvn" file. This is telling you that the opvn setting is not finding a matching cipher it is allowed to use. The fix per the message would be to add the Servers cipher to your options. https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-gui/issues/381 https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn/blob/master/doc/man-sections/cipher-negotiation.rst

I too haven't used the client-nat directive in some years (I currently implement 1:1 NAT with pfsense to access my network because I'm too lazy to change the networks subnet from the default) so I decided to retest and it does appear that OpenVPN Connect clients do not properly support the client-nat directive but the traditional OpenVPN server/clients still do. I've just tested this on OpenVPN 2.6.3 Server, OpenVPN 2.6.1 GUI for Windows from openvpn.net, and OpenVPN Connect iOS 3.3.3 and only the OpenVPN Connect client has any difficulty. Difficulty being that you can use client-nat successfully but it has to be configured server-side it can't be pushed to or setup on the client (OpenVPN Connect) side. The Server and Windows (non-OpenVPN Connect) clients work an any setup whether it's configured server-side, pushed to the client, or set up in the client config.

OpenVPN is a VPN client that I used primarily for work. We used VPN to connect to the dev server and we are using VPN. I also sometimes used that to open websites that got blocked in Indonesia like Reddit.

I connect all the servers with secure OpenVPN private network. And block unused ports anywhere with ufw.
