godcandy I setup openvpn on my web server so that I can preform backups and upload data without having to connect and somewhat on the fly. I only have one problem, the client on my file server at the house disconnects almost every day. I want a 24x7 static connection. Any thoughts would be great. Here is the log from the server when it disconnects: 2012-02-25 22:02:28-0600 [-] OVPN 1 OUT: 'Sat Feb 25 22:02:28 2012 <user>/<IP ADDRESS>:60966 TLS: soft reset sec=0 bytes=510920/0 pkts=8671/0' 2012-02-25 22:02:29-0600 [-] OVPN 1 OUT: 'Sat Feb 25 22:02:29 2012 <user>/<IP ADDRESS>:60966 VERIFY OK: depth=1, /CN=OpenVPN CA' 2012-02-25 22:02:29-0600 [-] OVPN 1 OUT: 'Sat Feb 25 22:02:29 2012 <user>/<IP ADDRESS>:60966 VERIFY OK: nsCertType=CLIENT' 2012-02-25 22:02:29-0600 [-] OVPN 1 OUT: 'Sat Feb 25 22:02:29 2012 <user>/<IP ADDRESS>:60966 VERIFY OK: depth=0, /CN=h4g' 2012-02-25 22:02:29-0600 [-] VPN Auth Failed: SESSION_ID not found (may have expired) [SESSION: Your session has expired, please reauthenticate] 2012-02-25 22:02:29-0600 [-] OVPN 1 OUT: 'Sat Feb 25 22:02:29 2012 MANAGEMENT: CMD 'client-deny 6 5 "AS auth failed" "SESSION: Your session has expired, please reauthenticate"'' 2012-02-25 22:02:29-0600 [-] OVPN 1 OUT: 'Sat Feb 25 22:02:29 2012 MULTI: connection rejected: AS auth failed, CLI:SESSION: Your session has expired, please reauthenticate' 2012-02-25 22:02:29-0600 [-] OVPN 1 OUT: 'Sat Feb 25 22:02:29 2012 Delayed exit in 5 seconds' 2012-02-25 22:02:29-0600 [-] OVPN 1 OUT: 'Sat Feb 25 22:02:29 2012 SENT CONTROL [<user>]: 'AUTH_FAILED,SESSION: Your session has expired, please reauthenticate' (status=1)' 2012-02-25 22:02:29-0600 [-] OVPN 1 OUT: 'Sat Feb 25 22:02:29 2012 <user>/<IP ADDRESS>:60966 Control Channel: TLSv1, cipher TLSv1/SSLv3 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, 1024 bit RSA' 2012-02-25 22:02:34-0600 [-] OVPN 1 OUT: 'Sat Feb 25 22:02:34 2012 <user>/<IP ADDRESS>:60966 SIGTERM[soft,delayed-exit] received, client-instance exiting' G
