I have a .ovpn file that's working fine with the GUI. I don't select an external certificate, but I can still connect to the vpn.

However when I try to use the cli, I run

Code: Select all

openvpn --config myconfig.ovpn

after adding to the config

Code: Select all

verify-client-cert none
mode server

this gives me

Code: Select all

Options error: --pull cannot be used with --mode server

But I have not specified pull as an option anywhere. How can I debug?

Hi.
Just out of curiosity.
Is the .ovpn profile from a community server or from an openVPN Access Server?
