I don't understand what makes you think I'm not using Easy-TLS
Let me re-state what I mean. You are not using Easy-TLS
correctly ..
When Easy-TLS creates an inline file the TLS-AUTH key is the last inline section. However, in your files the TLS-AUTH key is the first inline section, so you have edited the file in an unexpected way. In doing so, you have made some error.
You don't need to edit the inline file at all, instead you can reference it like so:
# THIS IS AN EXAMPLE, IT IS NOT LIVE CODE.
server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
config "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\easy-rsa\\pki\\easytls\\RoyerServer1.inline"
You can do the same in your client config but you must ensure that the inline file is the correct one and it remains intact as you transfer it. I don't have a MAC to test this on, so you'll have to figure that out for yourself.
And finally, do not address the key file directly with:
tls-auth ta.key 1
or any other way because this will conflict with the inline file.
