I am a volunteer administrator for a network for over 375 people using multiple devices. I have openvpn installed on a Ubuntu 11.x server. I have actually installed all aspects of this server and I use webmin for my gui. I am slowly learning command line and its value.
I am using shorewall firewall. I am really stuck. When I attempt to vpn using my outside IP address, the details in viscosity ( I have a mac) say a connection is possible but I get the dreaded TLS handshake failure.
I am not in a panic. My goal is to vpn from home so I can access my media wiki which contains useful information for vetting requests to the network. I do not necessarily wish to point my mediawiki to the outside (port 80) because I do not understand the security features of mediawiki nor do I desire to. I have to MAC address filter ( for two reasons, I am working in a facility which is secure, under an agreement I will not allow certain persons access to the network *I know MAC address filtering is not secure* & I have not had the time to learn how to build / operate a radius server)
I have a RV042 Linksys router connected to my server with two nics. Server is my DHCP and MAC address filter.
Please advise
I can turn on verb 6 logging, but I do not know where to find my log file.
I thank any and all ahead of time.
*This is my config file posted as requested*
