Hello,
I'm hoping one of you might be able to point me in the right direction, please go easy on me though as I have little hands on server experience.
Essentially all I am trying to do is setup OpenVPN on Debian VPS I have.
I have installed OpenVPN as per the YouTube video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6w3DquIB8yE
If I type "server openvpn status" on Debian, via Putty then I get the response it is active, it looks like the install went as it should.
However, when I try to connect on Windows 7, via the config file I'm getting the following TLS-Error:

I have replaced the IP address with x's in the above copy/paste.
I have checked that all ports are open on Debian, also that OpenVPN is not blocked by windows firewall and running as administrator.
All a bit frustrating really, was hoping it was going to be rather simple. Any ideas?
Thanks
