OpenVPN connect

Post by tsanders » Sun Jul 19, 2020 6:31 am

Hi,

Learning OpenVPN with OpnSense today.
I have a Microsoft PKI, setup Opnsense as SubCA, and setup OpenVPN server to use LDAP w/ TLS + User Auth.

I am able to successfully connect on Android OpenVPN connect.

Windows OpenVPN connect giving issues. If I export my config as .p12 and import certs to client I get log errors:

OpenSSLContext: CA not Defined

Or

If I export config with opnsense "Windows Certificate System Store" option (cryptoapicert "SUBJ:CertCN" inserted to config)
Then import chain Microsoft store.

I get error

BIO_read failed: cap-2576 Status=-1 error 0406B07A:rsa
routines:RSA_padding_add_none:data too small for key size / error:141F0006:SSL

If I export out a Viscosity VPN client config from Opnsense using same cert / chain Viscosity connects just fine.

Here's what Opnsense config export is feeding client:
Client Config generated by opnsense

dev tun
persist-tun
persist-key
cipher AES-256-GCM
auth SHA512
client
resolv-retry infinite
remote mydomain.com 16454 udp
lport 0
verify-x509-name "C=US, ST=CA, L=CA, O=CA, emailAddress=admin@mydomain.com, CN=vpn.mydomain.com" subject
remote-cert-tls server
auth-user-pass
auth-nocache
comp-lzo adaptive
pkcs12 VPN_User.p12
tls-auth VPN_User-tls.key 1

Any idea why Windows OpnVPN connect client dislikes my cert? Thanks!

Had to look that up. I see its a Open CA Tool that I need to checkout.
Are you implying that OpenVPN connect will not work with client cert auth when using Microsoft root CA?
Thanks.

Lol. No I will not be speaking with Microsoft.

I shared my entire environment / config export works perfect on Android OpenConnect 3.2.2 but will not work on Windows 3.2.0. I know the Cert / Microsoft CA fine. Same config.

Thx for link. I'll review it to manually build config defining certs.

I have the same situation:
* OpenVPN server on debian (2.4.7-1) with easy-rsa (3.0.6-1), self-signed CA and client certs.
* openvpn config works fine on android and ios
* On MacOS and Windows I get: 7/23/2020, 6:53:24 PM EVENT: ssl_context_error: OpenSSLContext: CA not defined

EDIT: SHOOT ME. I pasted the cert outside of the ca-/ca tags.

Try exporting your subca cert chain as .pem then adding it to your config enclosed in a <ca></ca> block.
