hi there,

first of all i want you to tell me if you want user-based authentication or not.?

your client asks for a user/pass because of this:

auth-user-pass

your server on the other hand misses auth plugin.... :?

you need to add something like:

plugin /usr/share/openvpn/plugin/lib/openvpn-auth-pam.so login

also read here...

http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html#auth

please always remove comments when posting configs...

openvpn 2.0.9 is way too old,use at least 2.1.4 or later...

plugin /usr/lib/openvpn/openvpn-auth-pam.so login

can you check the above path is correct and accessible from openvpn server?

also this error...

Unable to obtain Session ID from 109.74.192.198:443: XML-RPC: ConnectionRefusedError: 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it..

is VERY new to me.... :!:

Yeah, that file is there for sure, I triple-checked. But it was there from the start, I didn't build it or anything like that.

Also, disregard the error, it was from a different openvpn client and now I'm using the one that I use on the server as well.

maikcat

please post server log...

also the username used when you try to connect is a valid unix user?

Michael.

Michael.

I don't get prompted with any username login screen or anything like that. Or do I need to put the login into the CFG? Although I have not seen any examples of configs like that.

And sorry, I thought I was posting the server log but I was posting the status log. That's why it looked really weird. ): I'm stupid. Here it is.

if you want to use additionally to certificate verification , username / password

you must add to your client config

auth-user-pass

so it will ask you for a user/pass...

do you want user/pass verification or not? :S

I do have that in my config though, but it doesn't ask me for any pass or user. And I think my openVPN gui knows it's the right config because when I right click on the openVPN picture on the bottom right of my Windows and select "edit config" it opens that config.

normally by adding auth-user-pass GUI should ask for user/pass...

can you please:

remove all other configs for testings
make sure that there arent any tabs hidden somewhere in the config

also post full client log...

Michael.

This is the full log file, I'm reading the only .txt from "C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenVPN\log" (Excluding the README.)

And also I double checked the config, didn't find anything out of the ordinary.

I'm gonna try install openVPN on another Windows machine and see if it works.

maikcat

where exactly is it?

please repost it...

"C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenVPN\config\client.ovpn" is the config.

I just tried it on my other Windows 7 machine. Same thing.

Yep, and the server log says unknown IP packet seen.

2.0.9 is quite old

use at least 2.1.4

Thanks dude! Now it works. Except I can't login as root, got to login as another user. It's just that I was looking for clients on http://openvpn.se/ instead of openvpn.net, and this was the latest version. Thanks for not giving up on me :roll:
