OpenVPN on SME 7.0 (SOLVED)
« Reply #15 on: October 23, 2006, 10:41:36 PM »
I was wandering if there are any special settings for a VPN in server only mode.
The adsl router has internal IP 192.168.1.254
The sme-server box has IP 192.168.1.221
The service only initialises when I set the gateway IP to that of the adsl router.
However I get TLS handshake error with a 60 second time out when I do that.
I have port 1194 forwarded on the adsl router, and on the client machine's router.
The best I can accomplish is the username/password box popping up. After that it appears to be doing something but always times out before the connection process finishes.

Any ideas as to what I could be doing wrong?

Ohhh I too had this problem of the txt error when trying to create the client key - and I, too, see that I did not RTFM closely enough.  I must have skipped the bit that said make the Common Name "Client" and not "Server".

Doh!!

Thanks William_syd for the heads-up

Cheers
