OpenVPN Support Forum

Hello,

I'm new to Open VPN so I apologize in advance for my lack of knowledge.

I setup my VPN Server on my Asus router, here is the config file:


This is the error I've been getting from Tunnelblick

Openvpn 2.3.x does not support --ncp-ciphers

Yea I figured out the issue now. Thanks

I changed the version to 2.4.3 and now it works.
