Guys i try to set up the openvpn 3 days and i have just errors i set everything without error install OPENVPN set the certificates and still don't work can some one give me the server config file with this configuration my server is located on static LAN IP 192.168.1.100. Because i think that the problem is in my config file and firewall routing settings because some times i can't start it openvpn .

This tell's me there's another application (maybe openvpn?) is listening on the same port and therefore this openvpn-instance cannot open the port.

As root, try:

netstat -altunp | grep 1194

and see which application is allready on the port.

udp 0 0 192.168.1.100:1194 0.0.0.0:* 6399/openvpn

Yes there is ruining openvpn on that port but my client can't connect it stay on MANAGMENT:>STATE 1362344178, WAIT
