OpenVPN networking works but no Internet webpage is availabl

#1 Post by dikey94 »

At the beginning I'd like to say hello because I've had a long break in using Debian :)

I have a some troubles in using OpenVPN on Debian 9.3. Everything use to work on Windows so I believe there is a configuration issue on my local machine.

Our administrator gave us 4 files: .crt, .crt, .key and .ovpn; I've successfully installed openvpn and network-manager-openvpn-gnome. I can connect via VPN and all private resources seem to work. The problem occurs when I try to visit any public Internet website.

I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks.

get rid of network manager gnome openvpn whatever....
use the terminal to debug...

$ cd <to where the files are>
$ openvpn your_file.ovpn

you will see the connection/handshake progress... based on that you can start debugging the issue
