Hi, I've been facing this problem for a while and I didn't found any solution.
When I want to nmap an ip with terminal (previously connected to openvpn) using the “nmap -sC -sV -p$ports 10.10.10.27” command, I get the following error back:
Note: Host seems down. If it is really up, but blocking our ping probes,try -Pn
Nmap done: 1 IP address (0 hosts up) scanned in 3.43 seconds.
Anyone can help me with the issue?
Thank you.

Could be:
1. the host is really down
2. you aren't connected to the right network/vpn
3. the host or network is filtering ICMP
To determine if it's #1, eliminate #2 and #3.
To eliminate #2, on Linux, run the command
ip route show
and check to see if you have a route into the network, if you have a route into the network it in this case it would look something like10.10.10.0/24 via 10.10.14.1 dev tun0
To eliminate #3, add the options
-Pn
to your Nmap command.If you try tracert/traceroute you might get a better idea if things are working.

Happy to help people but PLEASE explain your problem in as much detail as possible! If you say vague things like "It's not working", I cant help. This isn't Twitter so my DMs are always open.
Currently have very limited HTB time but will try to respond as quickly as possible.
