Access Server in Amazon cloud - very slow

Post by freewill » Fri Apr 05, 2013 7:11 am

Hi,

First thing first, I am new to OpenVPN and Access server, I have started to run community version of Access server in Amazon cloud. It was running fine but since last week client (me) is having very very very slow browsing etc.
In one of chat session I was told to change the UDP port to 5060 to give it priority as ISP's might be blocking it.

So, Issue trying to solve is: Slow VPN

Now I am trying to use Stunnel to tunnel the traffic (using guide from http://safesrv.net/install-and-setup-op ... h-stunnel/).

When I try to run it using: /etc/init.d/stunnel4 start it gives me error :

Starting SSL tunnels: test: 107: /var/lib/stunnel4/: unexpected operator
[Failed: /etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf]
You should check that you have specified the pid= in you configuration file
root@ip-10-:/etc/stunnel# pid
-bash: pid: command not found

Any advise will be appreciated.

I am sorry, but some internet providers block or limit VPN connections.

stunnel looks promising to try and bypass this restriction. A pid is a process ID.

We really cannot help you with stunnel here - try contacting the stunnel community instead.
I'm still alive, just posting under the openvpn_inc alias now as part of a larger group.
