Hello, new OpenVPN user here, working to retire a PPTP VPN.
I am a bit green as this is my first pfsense/OpenVPN client, so please forgive any ignorance on this topic. These products do interest me but sometimes the learning curve can be rough.
Here's the problem I have:
I set up OpenVPN on a Pfsense appliance (Version 2.1.5 I believe)
The first tests worked fine, myself and some other IT dept members tested it out.
I had some of the more technically confident users try it out, we worked out some bugs and wrote up a guide for the general users.
This week the VPN stopped taking my connections, since it's not in production yet I saved it for a slower work day (today, naturally).
I connected to the pfsense appliance to find that the openvpn service will not even start, the error it gives is as follows:
penvpn[1023]: TCP/UDP: Socket bind failed on local address [AF_INET]ipaddress:1194: Address already in use
This confuses me a bit, as it is a valid Ip and nothing is using that port that i know of.
Any ideas? Need extra info?
Appreciate any replies, like I said I'm pretty new to this software but I'm very excited about its capabilities.
