Error parsing CA cert with Riseup VPN

Post by jeffhammett » Sat Oct 26, 2013 3:09 pm

I am trying to connect to the riseup.net VPN and getting the error below.
The same ovpn profile I'm trying to use on iOS works fine on my laptop.

Code: Select all

client
dev tun
auth-user-pass
remote seattle.vpn.riseup.net 1194
remote-cert-tls server
setenv CLIENT_CERT 0
ca RiseupCA.pem
I've added the ovpn profile and RiseupCA.pem through iTunes. When I enter my user name and password I get the error below. RiseupCA.pem can be found here: https://help.riseup.net/en/riseup-ca.

Code: Select all

Is your cert password protected?
