Unable to return to primary host when VPN disconnects/reconnects #12

Open zacbir opened 9 years ago

zacbir commented 9 years ago

Seems when the VPN on one of my remote machines changes (connects/disconnects/reconnects), even though the machines are on the same local wifi network, Teleport gets confused and won't let me return to the primary host. If the focus is on the primary host, I'll often have to toggle teleport sharing off/on to be able to hit the remote targets.

Thanks for reporting and apologies you haven't had a reply until now.

Teleport does not support use with a VPN. I'm going to leave this open as something that we could add support for in the future.

I do use a VPN personally and my client allows me to selectively choose which apps go through the VPN. A possible workaround for anyone facing this situation would be to configure Teleport to bypass the VPN for local connections.

Great point. I'm really glad to see Teleport getting some loving! Thanks so much! Haven't experienced this issue yet with my current employer's VPN, but I'll keep an eye out for whitelist functionality that would let its traffic stay local.
