How do I do a complete cleanup after openvpn installation

Post by fribse » Fri Dec 31, 2010 10:33 am

Hi Guys

Here at work we're using Access Manager with SSLVPN.
I'm using a pfsense firewall back home, and I wanted to set up VPN for that as well.
So I used the openvpn client, and created the config files etc. and it worked very nicely.
But now I can't get sslvpn via Access Manager (which also uses openvpn) to work.
This is really bad for me, as I had to go to work today, to sit here all alone monitoring a phone that doesn't ring, which I could just as well have done from home via a VPN connection.

So I need to know, how do I clean out the openvpn installation completely, so that the sslvpn will work again?

is your openvpn using a different subnet than your other setup?
you should be able to uninstall openvpn from add/remove programs

I think I got it removed.
It had for some reason left the service, so that was removed manually.
Then the last folder under program files could be removed.
Then I had to find some magic tools, because it also left a device in driverstore, and that's not just that easy to remove.
But after changing ownership of the folders, then changing the properties on them, I could remove that folder as well.

there was a .bat for removing the driver, but you prolly already deleted that
