I’m using TrustConnect with Linux, here’s the files I have;
root[at]slackware:/etc/openvpn# ls
certs free_client.conf keys
root[at]slackware:/etc/openvpn/certs# ls
ca.crt
root[at]slackware:/etc/openvpn/certs#
I start the connection like this;
openvpn --auth-nocache --config /etc/openvpn/free_client.conf --ca /etc/openvpn/certs/ca.crt --comp-lzo yes
Here’s the output I get when connecting;

Now I’m connected as you can see then I open up Firefox and try to surf and I can’t make any connections online.
I simply get in the browser a page saying;
Server not found
Firefox can’t find the server at www.google.com.
So what’s going on why can’t I surf after I connect?
THANKS
P.S. I have a hardware firewall and running a iptables firewall and I took them both off line to check this and it’s not a firewall issue.
Here’s also the output of ifconfig;
