OpenVPN client error

pinkstone

Hi everyone!

I am trying to setup VPN, but for some reason client side OpenVPN running on Gentoo fails to start.

As per https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/OpenVPN I enabled in kernel:

- Network core driver support
- Universal TUN/TAP device driver support

Contents of /etc/openvpn/openvpn.conf:

client
dev tun0
proto udp
remote 1.2.3.4 1194
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
user nobody
group nobody
persist-key
persist-tun
mute-replay-warnings
ns-cert-type server
comp-lzo
verb 3
ca /home/x/keys/ca.crt
cert /home/x/keys/client.crt
key /home/x/keys/client.key
key-direction 1
tls-auth /home/x/keys/ta.key 1

This is what happens when I try starting openvpn:

# /etc/init.d/openvpn start -v

Any help will be appreciated

I suggest you make sure your ethernet interface is up before you try to start openvpn.

pinkstone

Thanks for the reply,

Currently connected on wlan, but even if I am on ethernet I get the same error message

TinCanTech

I suggest you work through this:

TinCanTech, I do have working ethernet connection, but still I get "cannot start openvpn as net.eth0 would not start"

Here is output of ifconfig

is not openvpn .. it is a system dependency which you have not setup correctly ..

Try asking Gentoo about it.

If you want to see openvpn working then do this:

$ sudo openvpn --config /path/to/config.conf

TinCanTech, just tried this, but it seems to hang forever, doesn't happen anything until I Ctrl + C it

Actually just checked the log file, and it seems to be working, but my public IP is still the same
