Hi,

My first try failed when open the client to connect my server.

Server and the client are both running 2.3.6. Keys are created using easyrsk tool acoording
to its documents.

Server starts up normall (showing Initialization Sequence Completed)

Client failed in connecting:

VERIFY ERROR: depth=0, error=unsupported certificate purpose: CN=lg_server_dc1

if you open your lg_server_dc1.crt using a text editor you will see a section like:

Code: Select all

            X509v3 Extended Key Usage:
                TLS Web Server Authentication
            X509v3 Key Usage:
                Digital Signature, Key Encipherment

can you please post yours?

Michael.
