Hi,

Sorry, confused by your question. I sent this to the mailing list - no forum 
... is that an issue? 

Thanks,
... Russell

Hi,

OK, this is going to sound a bit crazy, but I have been struggling with it 
for a few days now with no luck - so putting my craziness aside let me try 
to explain ... ;-).

I had OpenVPN working fine, then my MB died - so I replaced it, reinstalled 
Windows and OpenVPN (same config files, I had backed them up) ... and no 
joy. I can get OpenVPN up and running, no issues there. I have two config 
files ... one as a server, one as a client. If I start the OpenVPN service, 
everything comes up, and I have the client connection, and the server is 
sitting there listening - but the next step is the problem ... :(. I try to 
bridge the server to my local LAN (like I did before!) ... but as soon as I 
do, I lose my local network (HomeGroup fails, can't even get to other 
machines as \\machinename). Delete the bridge, and my local network comes 
back.

I have a second machine configured the same way, and it works just fine. So 
I thought this was an OpenVPN version issue (had installed v2.3.9 a few days 
back), so I stepped back to v2.3.8 like on the other machine ... but the 
same issue. And the second machine also has a bridge configured, works just 
fine.

Any thoughts? Anything at all would be much appreciated! I can't keep 
pulling my hair out, not enough to spare ... ;-).

Thanks!

... Russell
