[resolved] unable to access openvpnas from Win Server 2008

[Dude]

Running as virtual appliance on VMware ESXi. Setup worked fine. Using a self-signed cert. OpenVPN server is listening to a publicly routed IP. I am able to access the OpenVPN server and make the connection to the VPN from a remote Windows 7 SP1 64-bit machine just fine, using the OpenVPN 1.7.2 client.

Running the same client on Windows Server 2008 SP1 64-bit I can bring up the OpenVPN login screen but I am unable to actually make the connection to the VPN. The error message is:

Unexpected error: untrusted_cert X509_V_ERR_SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN

According to the docs the more in-depth explanation for this error is:

A self-signed certificate exists in the certificate chain. The certificate chain could be built up using the untrusted certificates, but the root CA could not be found locally.

Any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks in advance!

Solved the issue myself, there were multiple OpenVPN CA certificates listed in the Windows Trusted Root Certification Authorities section. I deleted all of them and then attempted the connection again. Worked fine.
