Been trying to set up my wrt3200 as an openwrt server. I think I have the config files correct because I can log into the server as it is setup on my desktop. When I generate the .ovpen file from the wrt3200 openvpn server it does not populate the .ovpn file with any data. This is what I find in the ovpn file........ ------------------------------------------ # Auto-generated configuration file from Linksys12481 # Fri Sep 22 19:54:19 UTC 2017 MCF1 ----------------------------------------------------- I have spent a lot to time with Linksys support and I think they are as baffled as I am. I am wondering if anyone has been successful setting up any of the wrt routers mentioned above. Especially the wrt3200 Thanks Don

If you know the settings your server is using then it is simple enough to create a client profile. Start here: [url=http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html]HOWTO: For OpenVPN Community Edition[/url]

Been trying to set up my wrt3200 as an openwrt server.
I think I have the config files correct because I can log into the
server as it is setup on my desktop.
When I generate the .ovpen file from the wrt3200 openvpn server it does not
populate the .ovpn file with any data.
This is what I find in the ovpn file........

This process has nothing to do with openvpn what so ever .. it is completely Linksys problem.

Openvpn does not generate any config files for you.

I thought that may be the case.
I really would like to make the wrt3200 act as an openvpn server but it does not look promising for current the Linksys firmware.
How well does the dd-wrt firmware work for the openvpn server ?
