Hello,
I started using OpenVPN recently and have a lot of questions I would like to ask. I read through
this post about how to request help.
My current set-up...
OpenVPN Client
OpenVPN Connect Windows client, Version 3.2.2 (1455) 64-bit. Running on Windows 7 64-bit OS
OpenVPN Server
# openvpn --version
OpenVPN 2.4.0 arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [LZ4] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [MH/PKTINFO] [AEAD] built on Oct 14 2018
library versions: OpenSSL 1.0.2u 20 Dec 2019, LZO 2.08
Linux OS that OpenVPN server is installed on
# uname -a
Linux NEXTCLOUDPI 4.19.66-v7+ #1253 SMP Thu Aug 15 11:49:46 BST 2019 armv7l GNU/Linux
My question:
How do I get a log from the OpenVPN client side? There is an example Client log file
in this post but I don't know how to enable it in that format or where the file is located.
I installed OpenVPN Connect Windows client into: C:\Program Files\OpenVPN Connect
In this folder is a file called: agent.log with output such as this:
Wed Nov 11 23:33:37 2020 connection from C:\Program Files\OpenVPN Connect\OpenVPNConnect.exe
Wed Nov 11 23:33:37 2020 HTTP request received from NAMED_PIPE

Wed Nov 11 23:33:37 2020 proxy_auto_config_url
Wed Nov 11 23:33:38 2020 TUN SETUP
In the OpenVPN Connect Windows client itself there is a screen where you can view a log which gives information also that is almost the same but not exactly like what is in agent.log
Is there another way to get client log file information by making a setting in the client .ovpn config file or are those two log files above enough when asking for help on these forums?
Thank you,
Flex
