I installed openvpn and followed internet instructions blindly to set it up on my CentOS7 VPS. Then I downloaded Tunnelblick locally in OSX, with configuration located at ~/VPN/host.tblk/server.conf =
client
nobind
dev tun
redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp
remote 23.254.247.78 1194 udp
comp-lzo yes
#duplicate-cn
key /etc/openvpn/client.key
cert /etc/openvpn/client.crt
ca /etc/openvpn/ca.crt
Commented out that one line because it was appearing in an error before.
It will wait for server response forever.

How do I troubleshoot this and successfully tunnel my internet traffic? Thanks.
