I recently formatted my Windows 7 computer and lost my client's config files for OpenVPN. I recovered the certificates and default config that were left on the server but I haven't managed to make the whole thing work again. I assume the server's config and routing table are OK because it was working before (although quite some time ago).
Would any of you experts be able to help?

- Server and client do connect to each other, SSL certificates are OK.
- The client gets an IP (10.8.0.6) from the server
- OpenVPN client is started as an administrator.
But:
- I cannot ping the other one on either side.
- 'Gateway' value is empty on client's side (in the adapter's "status" window).
- Client has got no internet access when the link is up.
Ideal configuration:
- I only want the client to be able to use the server's Internet access and access its resources (MySQL server in particular).
- I do not need or want the server to access the client's local network.
- The client needs to be able to access it's local network, although all Internet traffic should be redirected to the VPN link.
I spent a considerable amount of time on this but it's still not working, any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks :)
