error read UDPv4: Connection reset by peer (WSAECONNRESET) (

Post by IanD » Tue Dec 14, 2010 8:08 am

Hi All

I am getting the error

read UDPv4: Connection reset by peer (WSAECONNRESET) (code=10054)

when I try to connect.
I am a new user so, it is probably an issue with my settings
Does anybody have any ideas what it could be ?
Thanks

Hello,

That error indicates that the specified port is not open on the vpn server. If openvpn is running on the server, this probably indicates a firewall issue.

Regards,
Stephen
