OpenVPN connection breaks after a few seconds

Post by ichionid » Thu Aug 07, 2014 1:25 pm

For the last hours I have been trying to connect to a VPN network through openVPN.
My connection settings are:

IPv4 tab:

Method: Automatic VPN
Routes: Use this connection only for resources on its network.

Then on the VPN tab:

fw01.vcloud.kirkeweb.dk
Type: Password with Certificates(TLS)
Under ADVANCED:

In General tab:
Use custom gateway port is checked
Use a TCP connection is checked
In TLS Authentication:
Use TLS Authentication is checked.

The log is:

I am checking the docs you've sent but please bear in mind that I am a newbie in this :)
