No VPN access for client overnight

Post by m.ourmech » Mon Nov 22, 2010 3:27 pm

Hi everyone :)

I am new to this forum and I hope I get the answer I am looking for :)

Actually My VPN solution works fine however when there is no client connected for a certain time, it s like the VPN server goes into sleep mode. No more client can connect to the VPN server. I have to telnet everytime the VPN server like to wake it up (just telnet, no rebooting of the server). After the telnet the clients connect normally. This often happen overnight because no one connect at night. thank you very much for your help.

sounds like your machine is in sleep mode or something...
this does not seem to be an openvpn specific issue...
check the power-saving settings on your OS
