[SOLVED] Unable to mount SMB share through OpenVPN

Post by waldauf »

Hello,

I'm solving problem. When I'm in my local network I can mount SMB share without problem. On QNAP I have configured OpenVPN which works great. After connection I can connect to QNAP Desktop without problem. But mounting SMB share doesn't work. I use the same command but with changed IP address.

Can I ask you for help?

No that's not the same problem. I have permit SMB share for user (which works) and can mount SMB - as is described in viewtopic.php?f=185&t=136313. In this case I cannot mount SMB share through VPN but in my local network it works.

Permitting you are using the QTS hosted OpenVPN, have not destroyed the default OpenVPN pool address config to overlap with any NAS LAN subnetworks, not set-up any limitations potentially blocking the OpenVPN pool addresses in the Microsoft Network Hosts access on the shared folder in question, and using the correct OpenVPN pool address ending in .1?

@schumaku you're right. I had set Microsoft Network access where I had specified IP addresses. I didn't know that this rule can influence SMB share. MANY THANKS for helping!
