I followed the guide outlined by http://www.howtogeek.com/64433/how-to-i ... rt-router/ but cannot connect.

Here is my config file:

Code: Select all

client
dev tun
proto tcp
remote 76.179.151.200 1194
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
script-security 3 system

ca ca.crt
cert client1.crt
key client1.key
ns-cert-type server
cipher AES-128-CBC
comp-lzo
verb 4

Here is my log file:

Well, there is a mistake in that tutorial.

They say to put:

Code: Select all

proto tcp

in client.ovpn, but then they say to use:

Code: Select all

iptables -I INPUT 1 -p udp --dport 1194 -j ACCEPT

to allow access.

These protocols should match. The correct firewall rule is:

Code: Select all

iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 1194 -j ACCEPT

Awesome, nice catch. However, now I'm getting other errors. The connection connects then disconnects and then repeats. Here is some additional log:

Does anybody know how to fix this error?

OpenVPN connects, then disconnects, and repeats. Any suggestions?

the log message

Fri Oct 21 16:59:42 2011 us=710000 WARNING: 'version' is used inconsistently, local='version V4', remote='version V0 UNDEF'

shows that traffic between client and server is getting mangled - check the MTU size on your network, possibly change the mtu to

Code: Select all

tun-mtu 1400

to both client and server - for windows client you'll need to do this using either a 'netsh.exe' command or using a registry key.
