Hi everyone,
I build my first network based on OpenVPN. But i want to know who is connected to the serwer. Is there any possibility to get some po-pup or something like that when the client is connected to the server ?

On our linux based OpenVPN server we use the status file:
Put these lines in openvpn config
Code: Select all
status openvpn-status.log 5
status-version 2
This creates a file named openvpn-status.log which contains information on active connections.

hi there,
just add
management 0.0.0.0 7505
to your server config
the 7505 is tcp port that management interfaces listens
using 0.0.0.0 ip interface is accessible from everywhere...
download openvpn control (from sourceforge i think)
install it (win version)
create new connection ,use server ip ,port and connect...
cheers,
Michael.
