OpenVPN connects to gateway but unable to access local resources suchs as window shares or ping other computers

Hello,

   I am in need of some help, I have Endian firell setup and openVPN enabled. I am able to connect remotely to the openVPN server, I can ping the internal address of the endian firewall but unable to ping local LAN clients such as window servers that are located on the same network as the Endian firewall.  I am lost as I am able to even communicate with Endian firewall through my web browser using HTTP so I know I am accessing the local side of the openVPN connection yet all other resources are not accessable.

My client configuration file is


client
float
dev tap
proto tcp
port 80
remote nova.reddingtech.com
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
ca Private_Network.cer
auth-user-pass
pull
comp-lzo


My remote client subnet is 192.168.1.0/24
my openVPN local subnet is 192.168.60.0/24

Please help!

Sounds like a DNS issue.  Have you tried accessing the information by IP as well as name?

CORRECTION: I meant
...If Endian doesn't look at the interface TYPE, try opening access for the OpenVPN subnet...
