OSPF over OpenVPN

[Michael McConnell]

Hello all,

I am trying to establish OSPF over OpenVPN without any luck. The client side always turns up with no neighbours. I’ve tried pointtopoint and exclusively listing my neighbours all with no luck. 

I originally was using the tun interface and switched to tap hoping that would help, but still nothing.

Below are my configurations, does anyone see anything obvious that I am missing?

Thanks so much for your time and thoughts!
