Hi, I am going crazy with this Windows 7 problem. I have Debian which is my primary OS with openvpn client that works flawlessly. When I try with the same config file (only added dev-node VPN line) on windows it won't connect. Actually it connects but I do not have internet access and connection breaks after 15-20second. I am in a dorm behind the proxy but I know that I can go through proxy because my Debian works fine. Here is my client config
client
remote SERVER IP 443
ca ca.crt
cert client1.crt
key client1.key
comp-lzo yes
dev tun
dev-node VPN
proto tcp
http-proxy 172.16.0.3 8080
http-proxy-retry
nobind
auth-nocache
script-security 2
persist-key
persist-tun
And here is log file from windows client:

I am running openvpn gui as administrator, and the windows firewall is turned off, there is no antivirus program installed. I really do not know what to do, I've search all over the internet and this is really driving me crazy.
