OpenVPN Support Forum

I had an OpenVPN server running from a Raspberry Pi2 with 3 clients all made at the same time.
1. Windows pc: OpenvpnClient
2. Nexus 7: OpenvpnClient
3. Android phone: OpenVPN for Android

I needed another client eg. pi and when I came to make this I needed to make another certificate (./build-ca) before I could continue. I may have deleted that some time ago if it was not deleted during the initial set-up.

I made keys for 'pi' sucessfully.

I was not then able to connect to the server with (1) or (2) but could connect with (3) above. The log for the failed connections is:

Is Openvpn for Android less secure because it can still connect?

Also, is there a route to getting (1) and (2) to shake hands again without starting from scratch?

You have created a new root ca which is only compatible with your new client ..

Roll back all your settings to your original setup if possible .. then create a new cert & key for your new client with (easy-rsa) ../vars & ./build-key client-name

If you cannot restore your original setup then recreate your entire PKI:
