Cannot connect to other servers running on same machine as VPN Server
Posted: Thu Jan 04, 2024 9:33 am
Hi all!
I am setting up Softether VPN for remote work in my company, it is running on an ubuntu 20 machine.
The setup went well and I can connect from the windows clients to the server and access all resources on the company network except for the services running on the same machine as the Softether VPN.
Let's say the Company network has 192.168.0.1 - 255 ip range and we have a HTML webserver running on 192.168.0.100 -> i can reach that one fine from outside the company via the VPN connection. Also network printers, etc. are all reachable.
However, we also have a HTML webserver running on the same machine as the Softether VPN server. That one is on 192.168.0.54. I can't reach that one. Is there a way to make it accessable?
Since the server is just a "normal" PC with one ethernet connection, I have set up a local bridge to a virtual tap device.
I also enabled SecureNAT and added a static route to the routing table, so only the traffic dedicated to the company network goes over the VPN.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
