VPS 1blu openvpn server tun (errno=25)

[insaiN]

Hi OpenVPN community,
glad you have an active forum to discuss issues. I'm trying to set up a openvpn server on a Virtual private server at 1blu.de
I have full root access and I the OS is ubuntu 18.04 minimal. That is how they call it in the webinterface. VIRTUOZZO is used for the virtual server.

I tried a few different scripts from github to install the server. All of them ended with the same error. I tried with a fresh install and running upgrade and dist-upgrade.
When starting openvpn with the config

View Originalserver

port 1194
proto udp
dev tun
sndbuf 0
rcvbuf 0
ca ca.crt
cert server.crt
key server.key
dh dh.pem
auth SHA512
tls-auth ta.key 0
topology subnet
server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0

cipher AES-256-CBC
user nobody
group nogroup
persist-key
persist-tun
status openvpn-status.log
log /var/log/openvpn.log
verb 3
crl-verify crl.pem

The tun0 device is not created and i have the following line in the log

Note: Cannot set tx queue length on tun0: Inappropriate ioctl for device (errno=25)

When I only run

Code: Select all

openvpn --mktun --dev tun0

I get the following outout.

TUN/TAP device tun0 opened
Note: Cannot set tx queue length on tun0: Inappropriate ioctl for device (errno=25)
Persist state set to: ON

Also tried to delete the /dev/net/tun adn recreate it with

Code: Select all

mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200

Tried to google for Inappropriate ioctl for device (errno=25), but could not find anything useful. Can anybody explain the error code or knows where to lookup the error in more detail?

Ask them if the tun driver is installed correctly.

Ask them if the tun driver is installed correctly.

I did. The fist answer didn't give any information and on the second try the only thing i got was:
"The usage of (Open)VPN is possible in gernal"

Find a better provider. One that knows how to provide support for their customers and their system.
