Hello, this is a new OpenVPN installation and I am a complete newbie myself. I deployed OpenVPN server per the instructions and created my own user (vpnuser) overwriting the default (openvpn) at the initial install. The user could successfully connect via VPN client so everything looked good. Unfortunately I am unable to do any further configuration. Here is the situation:
1. PuTTY: I can launch PuTTY session to the OpenVPN server as openvpnas. However I cannot do the same as vpnuser. If in the openvpnas PuTTY session I type /usr/local/openvpn_as/bin/ovpn-init, I get "You must be root to run this". However I don't have any root password. If I type "passwd vpnuser" I get "user 'vpnuser' does not exist". If I type "passwd root" I get "You may not view or modify password information for root".
2. Web GUI: I got to https://<openVPNipaddress>:943/admin. If I try to login as vpnuser I get "You do not have Administrative permission". I do not have any other credentials.
Any ideas?
Thanks
