Hello, We have a problem with proxy settings. I try to configure http-proxy "[i]http-proxy 192.168.0.2 80[/i]" but can not connect, I have the error "[i]connecting to client has failed [/i]" and log show: "Options [i]error: - http-proxy MUST be used in TCP Client mode (ie - proto tcp-client) Use - help for more information[/i]." How can I configure the proxy right? Thanks,

Hello,

We have a problem with proxy settings. I try to configure http-proxy "http-proxy 192.168.0.2 80" but can not connect, I have the error "connecting to client has failed " and log show: "Options error: - http-proxy MUST be used in TCP Client mode (ie - proto tcp-client)
Use - help for more information."

How can I configure the proxy right?

Thanks,

Without your configs, it's hard to say, exactly, but I'd start by doing what the error says to. My guess is you're using UDP. Change to TCP and you should be fine.

Hi,

I change to "proto TCP" and I have a diferent error.

Thu Dec 17 16:03:28 2009 HTTP proxy returned: 'HTTP/1.1 502 Proxy Error ( Connection refused )'
Thu Dec 17 16:03:28 2009 HTTP proxy returned bad status
Thu Dec 17 16:03:28 2009 TCP/UDP: Closing socket
Thu Dec 17 16:03:28 2009 SIGTERM[soft,init_instance] received, process exiting

I analyzed packets sent with software wireshark and show:
IP_Source IP_Destination TCP 52187 > openvpn [SYN] Seq=0 Win=65535 Len=0 MSS=1460

IP_Destination IP_Source TCP openvpn > 52187 [RST, ACK] Seq=1 Ack=1 Win=0 Len=0

Can I blocked some port?
What I have to open ports in the firewall?

Thanks for all,

Your proxy is not allowing the connection. Either you do not have it running, or you have a firewall blocking you. This is not very much openvpn related but rather related to your proxy and general networking. get your proxy working on the ip:port openvpn reaches it at via your web browser, then bring openvpn into the mix.
