sazandora Please forgive me if this issue is well known; I have spent quite a large amount of time Googling with no clear result. As simply as I can put it: The service always starts, usually with the error shown below. The connection to the host is usually up (ping by address works) When I cannot ping the host I can usually 'fix' it by restarting the service The connection to the host is periodically lost, and can always be restored by 1 (or more) restarts of the service Platform is: Windows 8.1 (32 bit) running on DELL Venue 8 Pro Tablets OpenVPN (2.3.3) Server running on Windows Server 2012 Untangle Client running as a service from an admin account Configuration file (built by the installer I think): client resolv-retry 20 keepalive 10 60 nobind mute-replay-warnings ns-cert-type server comp-lzo verb 1 persist-key persist-tun explicit-exit-notify 1 dev tun proto udp port 1194 cipher AES-128-CBC cert keys/sanilac-STC-Tablet-12.crt key keys/sanilac-STC-Tablet-12.key ca keys/sanilac-STC-Tablet-12-ca.crt remote 107.214.73.229 1194 # public address remote 192.168.1.2 1194 # static WAN 1 ------------------------------ A typical log file: Thu Sep 24 09:41:07 2015 OpenVPN 2.3.3 i686-w64-mingw32 [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [PKCS11] [IPv6] built on Apr 9 2014 Thu Sep 24 09:41:07 2015 UDPv4 link local: [undef] Thu Sep 24 09:41:07 2015 UDPv4 link remote: [AF_INET]107.214.73.229:1194 Thu Sep 24 09:41:09 2015 [server] Peer Connection Initiated with [AF_INET]107.214.73.229:1194 Thu Sep 24 09:41:11 2015 do_ifconfig, tt->ipv6=0, tt->did_ifconfig_ipv6_setup=0 Thu Sep 24 09:41:11 2015 open_tun, tt->ipv6=0 Thu Sep 24 09:41:11 2015 TAP-WIN32 device [Local Area Connection] opened: \\.\Global\{5B60501E-41E5-4D98-B6EB-6F5E440AE155}.tap Thu Sep 24 09:41:11 2015 Notified TAP-Windows driver to set a DHCP IP/netmask of 172.16.227.74/255.255.255.252 on interface {5B60501E-41E5-4D98-B6EB-6F5E440AE155} [DHCP-serv: 172.16.227.73, lease-time: 31536000] Thu Sep 24 09:41:11 2015 Successful ARP Flush on interface [10] {5B60501E-41E5-4D98-B6EB-6F5E440AE155} Thu Sep 24 09:41:16 2015 Initialization Sequence Completed Thu Sep 24 09:41:16 2015 Start net commands...

Any assistance would be hugely appreciated; please let me know what important information I have omitted - the Untangle installation is pretty much a black box from my perspective; it is maintained by the IT admin of our client. Thanks in advance, Chris Hough
