Hi all,
I'm having some problems with setting OpenVPN up. My case is quite simple but I haven't figured it out how to set up a proper VPN tunnel with TLS encryption etc. I will try to describe the problem I'm facing.
I have a Linux OS (Ubuntu 13.04) installed on a laptop with static IP and a PC (with Windows 7) that is connected to Internet via mobile phone modem. All I am trying to do is to set up my PC (that runs on Windows) as a client and connect it through VPN tunnel to my laptop (that's a server). I've created two main files: server.conf and client.ovpn. I've also created all the relevant files such as ta.key, server.crt, client.crt, ca.crt etc. All files are in proper locations. The thing is that the connection between these two machines worked fine for shared key connection. I am getting "connection refused" and "restart connection in 5 sec" in log file on client site. Do you think the reason might be the mobile phone modem's IP that can't be used in creating the VPN tunnel or something is blocked on ISP site in this case?
I will appreciate any ideas.
Thanks
