VPN Connectivity
Hello.
I have an AlmaLinux 9.4 server which is running OpenVPN server. The server is running fine and I can connect my Windows machine fine to it using the OPENVPN client Gui software. I have added a static Internal IP to the VPN server 10.8.0.2 and have forwarded 3389 traffic to it using this command :
firewall-cmd --permanent --direct --add-rule ipv4 nat PREROUTING 0 -p tcp --dport 3389 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.8.0.2:3389
This was I am able to access the Windows machine using RDP. In short this is all working as required.
========================================================================
I decided to buy the Archer AC 73 router so that I can install the OpenVPN client on it and achieve the same - The good part is that everything is working as expected, except I am unable to access the RDP.
I am not very technical and did a bit of digging to find (via tracert command) that client machine is sending packets to the local Windows router 192.168.0.1 rather than the VPN gateway router 10.8.0.1 - I beleive this to be the problem - please guide as to why I am unable to access RDP in this setting and is there a workaround to this problem.
