Hi all,
This is my first time using a VPN. I want to start being more mindful of my security and was told a VPN was an excellent first step.
I downloaded the open vpn gui and extracted the config files; however, when I right click the icon and hit connect it hangs and just says "connecting to mullvad config"
I checked the logs and saw this
Sun Feb 08 16:46:38 2015 OpenVPN 2.3.6 x86_64-w64-mingw32 [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [PKCS11] [IPv6] built on Dec 1 2014
Sun Feb 08 16:46:38 2015 library versions: OpenSSL 1.0.1j 15 Oct 2014, LZO 2.08
Enter Management Password:

Sun Feb 08 16:46:38 2015 Exiting due to fatal error
I tried googling to find the answer but haven't found a remedy for this specific problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated

maikat I'm having the same problem same message exactly "2015 MANAGEMENT: Socket bind failed on local address [AF_INET]127.0.0.1:25340: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket"
I've been using Open VPN successfully for a few years but recently ran into this problem and don't know what to do.
This is what has been working for me.
