      We have been using OpenVPN for about a year now with no issues. Starting last week, when we are attempting to connect (on a Mac with the OpenVPN Connect app), we received an error and it looked as though the cert had expired. After poking around for a bit, I truly have "hosed" the service (Service status is just a red "X" now).

      I would imagine the easiest way to resolve this would be to wipe the VPN service and start over. We only have 3 users at this point. Is there documentation on how to do this?

        why not re-run the wizard?

        Routing: Juniper, Arista, Cisco
        Switching: Juniper, Arista, Cisco

          @michmoor I have tried to rerun the wizard but now I get a message "One or more of the selected NCP Algorithms is not valid." Thoughts?
