Very strange connection method
Posted: Tue Feb 02, 2021 6:38 pm
hello,
I'm studding since November in distancing. Our admin which is also our Linux teacher have give us access to remote machines through PFSence and OpenVPN, and send us to connect login-password and... an .exe ! Cool, I'm the only one under Linux ! And I'm a student !!
I've extract the configuration files .opvn .p12 and tls.key in a folder. Network manager seem do not want of this config, anyway I use the terminal
I'm surprised to have to use sudo but this is like this. Then I give login-password and I can use. To stop I have to:
If I do not the machine is really long to close completely at shutdown
This doesn't look like very clean to me but It works, so do I. The problem is not this one.
The problem is that I have to move in some days, and to follow courses I would like to connect a portable machine under Linux too (mint 18.3) to this VPN. So have I copy the configuration's file), but when I send the command line I obtain a surprising:
I've try another machine under Xubuntu 20.04, the error is the same.
I've look the configuration, all look ok, but I seem have no log. The administrator is absolutely absent subscribers.
Have someone à sort of direction witch I could follow ? I'm a little bit disappointed of that
