May 31, 2018 · OpenVPN will adjusted the MTU of the tun/tap interface while creating it. You can check the interfaces effective MTU by using ip link show or ifconfig command. The same however can not be said about Windows. In a typical scenario, OpenVPN is not even directly responsible for creating the said interface. I have a working routed OpenVPN (tun interface) on a Ubuntu Linux machine. All clients are WinXP except of one (Ubuntu). If I am connected via LAN to my Samba server, I can reach it with the NetBIOS name. But if I am connected via OpenVPN to my Samba server I only can connect the samba share using the IP-address. Can you help me to solve this? client dev tun proto udp remote "public IP" 1194 resolv-retry infinite nobind ns-cert-type server # This means that the certificate on the openvpn server needs to have this field.

OpenVPN offers two types of interfaces for networking via the Universal TUN/TAP driver. It can create either a layer-3 based IP tunnel (TUN), or a layer-2 based Ethernet TAP that can carry any type of Ethernet traffic. OpenVPN can optionally use the LZO compression library to compress the data stream.
2) Re-install the OpenVPN application by following the instructions in the link below: Re-install OpenVPN . 3) If re-installing the OpenVPN application still does not resolve the issue you’re experiencing, please give our L2TP VPN a try by following the instructions in the link below: L2TP VPN Setup (Windows 10) Thomas -Balu- Walter
