Hi,
I have windows 7 where i run BackTrack 5r3 linux on VMplayer.
I use openvpn to connect to lab environment. At first i had no problem connecting it, then i start getting TLS Error: TLS handshake failed.
i have not changed the configuration file it always has been same.
config file
client
dev tap
proto udp
rport 1194
remote xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
ca efw-1333989184.pem
persist-key
persist-tun
auth-user-pass
comp-lzo
when i run openvpn --config configfile.conf i get error
root@bt:~/lab# openvpn --config configfile.conf

and when lab owner try to use my user and password with same conf it works, and after that it works for me also. Then next day or some other day again i run into TLS error.
(i use this computer @work-DLS and @home-3g network)
I hope you understand my problem.
(English is not my mother tongue)
is it possible to force openvpn not to use TLS?
