I am trying to set up OpenVPN 2.2.1 on my CentOS 6.2 VPS. This is my first time setting up, and everything went smoothly. The service is running, and the client is able to connect. My intention is to forward all my traffic from the client, to my VPS, to the internet. However, I am met with a problem.
When pinging the VPS IP, everything works fine. However, when pinging ANY other IP/name server on the internet, it refuses to connect.
I have spent the past 5 hours reading threads and looking for solutions, but none of them applied to me. The nature of the problem has led me to believe that it is an issue with the traffic not being routed correctly.

In my sysctl.conf file, I've enabled IP forwarding:
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
I tried posting on the OpenVPN forums for support, but my thread got mysteriously deleted. Any help would be appreciated.

UPDATE: Something strange happened. Some background first:
I use Skype to transfer files from the client machine to the machine I am using now to troubleshoot. I usually disconnect from the VPN first (with the assumption that it's not working), however, while sending the .txt files over to the troubleshooting machine for a recent request, I realized that it was working while being connected to the VPN. To make sure this wasn't a fluke, I resent a larger file, and surely enough the IP I was receiving from matched that of the VPN. This has somewhat given me hope that not all is lost. Hopefully this will shed some light on the solution to this problem.
What I can do:
Send files over Skype while connected to the VPN, only if Skype was already logged into before the connection the VPN was established.
What I **cannot* do:
Login/connect to Skype using the VPN.

Alright guys, having some technical difficulties with my account atm, will be resolved soon hopefully. However, BIG update:
I am now able to ping/tracert to 1.2.4.1
I realized that the first rule in IPtables
POSTROUTINGwas wrongly configured, so I removed it and re-added it. Everything is working as it should now! Thanks you all for your help, I would have never come across the solution without it.@cjc @Alex @Kilo
