I cannot get my openvpn client to connect to the server

Post by snake24 » Sat Jan 14, 2012 8:55 am

This occured all of a sudden. I could always connect to the server and then today the client doesn't know how to do so. I think my username and password that's saved on the client is gone. ANyway when i attempt to connect it just says error and that's it. Nothing else to help.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled and also updated the client already.

Hi this is the service from openvpn i'm using

https://www.privatetunnel.com/index.php ... vices.html


It will install a client for you to connect to the service. That's it.

I don't understand everything else.

I'm using windows 7 64bit ulitmate.

Here's a picture of the clinet i'm using.

All along it had the urls of the servers then one day poof it disappears and when i connect it just says connect error, that's it nothing more.

Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't fix a thing

This is really frustrating and that nobody even seems to know

Please address the issue to the private VPN provider you had downloaded the client.
