OpenVPN Support Forum

Hi All,

First I should say I am new to openvpn... I have just finished configuring a new OpenVPN appliance server and am now stuck as the client doesn't seem to want to connect...

It appears that it get stuck on connecting when I look at the client...

Can someone tell me where I am going wrong?

Here is my log file...

Do I need to open any additional ports in my firewall apart from the default UDP 1194?

Thanks

UDP port 1194 is not accesible. Check firewall and forwardings.
