Hi there,
I have got a linux router (I don't think this is the source of my
problem) between my OpenVPN Server and the Internet.
Me and 2 guys were trying to play "Battle For Middle Earth" via an
OpenVPN bridge running on my Computer behind the router.
The listening port of OpenVPN (1194) is forwarded correctly to my
computer. Also the clients had no problems connecting. We can ping each
other and we also see the smb network shares of each other.
But for some strange reason this game didn't not work quite right.
(For those who know it: I (running the openvpn server) saw the clients
inside the game lobby, they didnt see anyone except themselves).
The only thing i can provide as an error OpenVPN spit out is this:
MULTI: packet dropped due to output saturation (multi_add_mbuf)
Sometimes this messages was prefixed by one of the client IPs.
So obviously there are outgoing packets dropped which would at least
explain why I can see them and they can't see me.
So does anyone have an idea where this packet dropping comes from? My
internet connection did still have some capacities left...
I also did a search on google and inside these newsgroups but this
didn't return anything useful.
Thanks in advance,
Jonas
