Hi,
I am getting the following errors on one of the clients when trying to connect to our new OpenVPN server. Other clients are able to connect successfully suggesting that it is a client configuration issue. The client in question is running Windows XP SP3. I can't find any information about this message "SENT CONTROL [vpn1-usa.getronics.com]: 'PUSH_REQUEST' (status=1)" in the forums. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. 🙂
