openvpn and ssh don't work

  • 772

I have configured the ssh server for remote connection and it works perfectly.

I run a docker container for the openvpn service using the image "kylemanna / openvpn", so far so good.

If I try to connect to the ssh it works without problems, if I connect to the vpn too, it works fine, but if I am connected to the vpn and try to connect by ssh to the same server it gives me a timeout. To connect via ssh I have set the real ip and I have also tested with the ip of the vpn tunnel and in no case is it connected.

I read connected-to-openvpn-server-but-cant-ssh but not works for me.

EDIT

When type ufw status see:

    To                      Action      From
1194/udp                    ALLOW       Anywhere    #Allowing OpenVPN
22/tcp                      ALLOW       Anywhere    # SSH allowed

Even if I stop the ufw service with "sudo systemctl stop ufw.service" I cannot connect via ssh if I am connected to the vpn

networking server vpn ssh openvpn

  1. You need to disable the firewall with

    ufw disable

    This command

    sudo systemctl stop ufw.service

    Just disables de service and the rules maybe still working.
