OpenVpn Gateway (switch3)

[D4sh]

Hi All,

I have recently started playing with the packet squirrel.  I have the openvpn server setup and the squirrel connected. 

I can ssh to the squirrel on my network via the tunnel, however if i try to connect to anything on the network subnet it times out.  Ping fails with destination port not reachable, traceroute gets all the way to the squirrel and then fails, so i am assuming that this is probably down to the firewall.

The one thing i am looking for is the log files for the firewall and openvpn on the squirrel to see what is going on.  Where are these stored on the squirrel?  I have looked in the usual places, but i am unable to find them.

Any pointers would be great.

Yeah, I'm doing the same thing. I've setup static routing to the subnet in question from the VPN server, so in theory it should work, but I'm assuming the squirrel doesn't allow forwarding to the other subnet, or needs configuration to support it? 

 

I'm trying to access the 10.0.5.0/24 subnet that's on the other side of the squirrel, with no joy. Pings from the OVPN server work fine to the squirrel, but not to the subnet on the other side.

Interesting - I hadn't considered this, as I would have simply used the Squirrel to pivot, but this makes sense. 

I'll add it to the list for the next firmware.

There was a discussion about this here:

Sounds interesting, perhaps a Hak5 episode on Pivoting @Sebkinne? I've researched it but got a bit confused :P

@Sebkinne i would really appreciate that feature to Pivot with the PS. Maybe u have an suggestion for this. I looked into the Netmodes and i think that it could be configured there.

Hey guys can someone walk me through this please? I skipped the step of "changing line 5 from 0 to 1 for clients b/c I cannot get there lol. whats the next command after: cd payloads switch3, ls? I know my skills aren't that great buy the guide isn't exactly step by step. thanks gents any help is much appreciated.  I am at the very last step, after SSHing into the squirrel, and cannot SCP root@myserveraddress:client.ovpn .  The output I get is "timed out" or "connection not available/unreachable." 

Thanks again,

If I understand correctly what you and @Yaricks are trying to accomplish, I made a post about it here

It's something I've been using for quite a while to bridge a remote network and access it seamlessly. Hope this helps!
