You don't necessarily have to set up a special route. Please edit in your OpenVPN configuration. Can you ping the device on the virtual IP? If yes: you don't need a route and should be able to connect via VNC, if no: your config is wrong.
– Lenniey
May 11 '17 at 6:38
Hmm, interesting. I'll have a look and respond back. The OpenVPN config hasn't been touched by me as i downloaded a ready2use config. Thanks for the feedback and i'll let you know if it worked.
– script'n'code
May 11 '17 at 18:46
@Lenniey I could ping my public VPN address both locally and remotely. I could also ping my VPN's local address (locally of course). VNC'ing via my public VPN address however is impossible but seems more related to how my routes are set-up. I don't know what to change in my OpenVPN config. I've read all docs but it's way beyond my understanding.
– script'n'code
May 12 '17 at 2:36
Where did you get this config from? It's not...usual. But: can you ping from your client to your local VPN-server IP?
– Lenniey
May 12 '17 at 6:48
The config is from VPN service vpnbook.com. My VNC clients aren't on the same network. They are supposed to connect over WAN (internet). These clients can't ping my local VPN address. - BUT, since you've mentioned my VPN config to look 'unusual', i did some digging. I found out that the used VPN config appears to be an OpenVPN 'client' config. Though, i have no intentions acting as a VPN server myself.

(updated routes list/OpenVPN connection data to reflect the current situation)
This probably has been asked/answered before, but i'm really lost (and i can't comment on other/existing questions yet due to lack of points).
What i'm trying (and want) to achieve, is to let my remote (WAN) users connect to my VNC server, but via my (Open)VPN public/external IP address.
I know i have to add a routing entry to the routing table, but i really have no clue what to enter.
Below is some useful information about my network:

You don't necessarily have to set up a special route. Please edit in your OpenVPN configuration. Can you ping the device on the virtual IP? If yes: you don't need a route and should be able to connect via VNC, if no: your config is wrong.
– Lenniey
May 11 '17 at 6:38
Hmm, interesting. I'll have a look and respond back. The OpenVPN config hasn't been touched by me as i downloaded a ready2use config. Thanks for the feedback and i'll let you know if it worked.

May 11 '17 at 18:46
@Lenniey I could ping my public VPN address both locally and remotely. I could also ping my VPN's local address (locally of course). VNC'ing via my public VPN address however is impossible but seems more related to how my routes are set-up. I don't know what to change in my OpenVPN config. I've read all docs but it's way beyond my understanding.

May 12 '17 at 2:36
Where did you get this config from? It's not...usual. But: can you ping from your client to your local VPN-server IP?
– Lenniey
May 12 '17 at 6:48
The config is from VPN service vpnbook.com. My VNC clients aren't on the same network. They are supposed to connect over WAN (internet). These clients can't ping my local VPN address. - BUT, since you've mentioned my VPN config to look 'unusual', i did some digging. I found out that the used VPN config appears to be an OpenVPN 'client' config. Though, i have no intentions acting as a VPN server myself.

Great to see your working with Tight VNC.
I was running with Ultra VNC in my user's machine and connect them while I was working in the home.
I connect with Open VPN, I will just use VNC clients such as tight VNC viewer or Ultra VNC viewer.
I just put the IP of the user I want to connect as like I was in office.
I can access the office network.
So, there is no requirement for adding routing table.
Please refine your Tight VNC server in the machine, check the firewall ports that 5900 and 5901 is allowed.
If you find any other issue, or the same issue exists please don't hesitate to ask me back.
Thanks and regards,

I've removed my previous comment as i overlooked the third sentence about OpenVPN. All the necessary/required ports are allowed/not blocked. I have the slightest idea why it won't work for me.
– script'n'code
May 12 '17 at 2:42
I strongly recommend you to go with Single Click of Ultra VNC.I just worked 8 months before and achieved the project by connecting my clients to my system globally.As the single click is open source, there will be no proper documentation for proceeding.
– Sathiya Moorthy Karan
May 17 '17 at 10:47
Thanks. But what version should i download (all versions appear old/outdated to me)? Also the website states "Size: UltraVNC is about 650k while SC is only 166k", but after downloading and opening some archives, filesizes are over 1MB, instead of the advertised 166k.

I've removed my previous comment as i overlooked the third sentence about OpenVPN. All the necessary/required ports are allowed/not blocked. I have the slightest idea why it won't work for me.

I strongly recommend you to go with Single Click of Ultra VNC.I just worked 8 months before and achieved the project by connecting my clients to my system globally.As the single click is open source, there will be no proper documentation for proceeding.

Thanks. But what version should i download (all versions appear old/outdated to me)? Also the website states "Size: UltraVNC is about 650k while SC is only 166k", but after downloading and opening some archives, filesizes are over 1MB, instead of the advertised 166k.

Great to see your working with Tight VNC.
I was running with Ultra VNC in my user's machine and connect them while I was working in the home.
I connect with Open VPN, I will just use VNC clients such as tight VNC viewer or Ultra VNC viewer.
I just put the IP of the user I want to connect as like I was in office.
I can access the office network.
So, there is no requirement for adding routing table.
Please refine your Tight VNC server in the machine, check the firewall ports that 5900 and 5901 is allowed.
If you find any other issue, or the same issue exists please don't hesitate to ask me back.
Thanks and regards,

You don't necessarily have to set up a special route. Please edit in your OpenVPN configuration. Can you ping the device on the virtual IP? If yes: you don't need a route and should be able to connect via VNC, if no: your config is wrong.

Hmm, interesting. I'll have a look and respond back. The OpenVPN config hasn't been touched by me as i downloaded a ready2use config. Thanks for the feedback and i'll let you know if it worked.

@Lenniey I could ping my public VPN address both locally and remotely. I could also ping my VPN's local address (locally of course). VNC'ing via my public VPN address however is impossible but seems more related to how my routes are set-up. I don't know what to change in my OpenVPN config. I've read all docs but it's way beyond my understanding.

Where did you get this config from? It's not...usual. But: can you ping from your client to your local VPN-server IP?
– Lenniey
May 12 '17 at 6:48
The config is from VPN service vpnbook.com. My VNC clients aren't on the same network. They are supposed to connect over WAN (internet). These clients can't ping my local VPN address. - BUT, since you've mentioned my VPN config to look 'unusual', i did some digging. I found out that the used VPN config appears to be an OpenVPN 'client' config. Though, i have no intentions acting as a VPN server myself.
