OpenVPN on IPCop


Friends,

I have installed Zerina OpenVPN on IPCop to allow me to access our network in the office. However, I can't understand what are these error messages:

CP/UDP: Incoming packet rejected from 192.168.1.1:1194[2], expected peer address: 61.10.2.100:1194 (allow this incoming source address/port by removing --remote or adding --float)
y
I have installed OpenVPN on IPCop before but only with two zones (Green and Red). Now I have all the four zones and its not working anymore. Hope someone have encountered this already and can help me on this. Thanks.

float

Basically, I am trying connected to the Blue zone. I have configured to connect to Red, Blue, Orange and green Network. However, I am still inside our network. For me to access the green network, I need to establish a VPN tunnel. I realize that I am able to connect when I'm home but cannot when I am still in the office. Isn't possible to connect from blue network to green using VPN? If I need to alter some lines on my openvpn configuration, please let me know. I just need to connect the blue network to the
