Hello,

I make OpenVPN Server on debian... extract this file /etc/openvpn/client.tar.gz and include this files:

client.crt , client.csr, client.key, and ca.crt and client.conf which rename client.ovpn (for windows client)...

and then copy all files to this path:

Quote:
C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config


so edit client.ovpn for some path like:

ca /etc/openvpn/km31512-05.hostingaura.com-keys/ca.crt
cert /etc/openvpn/km31512-05.hostingaura.com-keyss/client.crt
key /etc/openvpn/km31512-05.hostingaura.com-keys/client.key

change to this path for windows client:

ca F:\\Program\ Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\ca.crt
cert F:\\Program\ Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\client.crt
key F:\\Program\ Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\client.key

then run OpenVPN GUI and click for connect... this is log connect:

So... my configure file:

Quote:
export OPENVPN_SERVER="vpn.km31512-05.hostingaura.com"
export OPENVPN_CLIENTS="client"
export OPENVPN_IPRANGE="10.23.213"
export OPENVPN_LOCALDOMAIN="km31512-05.hostingaura.com"


What's my wrong??

I haven't ping from windows client to 10.23.213.0

Did you run make && make install after you extracted the files on the Debian box? After that you have to start the VPN daemon. Then you can connect from windows.

I'll try it on Ubuntu and FreeBSD. I don't have debian.

OpenVPN static key file
/var/log/daemon.log:Feb 27 11:52:20 km31512-05 ovpn-server[28648]: Cannot open f ile key file '/etc/openvpn/keys/ta.key': No such file or directory (errno=2)

The file that contains your encryption key is missing.

openvpn --genkey --secret ta.key

Did you run that command? ^^

I set up openvpn on Ubuntu without encryption or authentication just to see if I could get it to connect. I couldn't connect to it from XP so I installed it on FreeBSD and I was able to connect. However, after the "Initialization Sequence Completed" message, I couldn't do anything else with it. Am I supposed to be able to run commands the way I can with SSH or FTP?
