I wanted an OpenVPN server so that I could create a private VPN network for staff to connect to the server.
However, not as planned, when clients connect to the VPN, it's using the VPN's internet connection (ex: when going to whatsmyip.com, it's that of the server and not the clients home connection).
server.conf
local <serverip>
port 1194
proto udp
dev tun
ca ca.crt
cert x.crt
key x.key
dh dh1024.pem
server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt
client-to-client
keepalive 10 120
comp-lzo

persist-tun
status openvpn-status.log

client.conf

My goal is that clients can only talk to the server and other clients that are connected.
Hope I made sense. Thanks for the help!
