Trying to create an OpenVPN client to a public OpenVPN provider
-
First of all I think I strolled the forum that much that I'm pretty sure the answer is not out there for me.
I followed the sticky topic "How to create an OpenVPN client to a public OpenVPN provider", which was great. Up untill checking if it is working ;)
I get this message in the log:
openvpn[33727]: Sorry, 'Auth' password cannot be read from a fileAnd I read in the forum that it shall be possible to use the auth-user-pass option in 2.0, but as it seems this did not work. Is this temporarily disabled or tampered with in the version I'm running? Which is:
2.0-BETA4 (amd64)

add this to your advanced section:
auth-user-pass <location-to-password-file>;
the password file needs, username on the first line, password on the second.</location-to-password-file>

Yup, this is exactly what I have done.

Where have you placed the file?
Don't know if it will do you any good, but you can take a look at my guide: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,28969.0.html and see if that helps you :)

Try again on newer snapshots. I recompiled the OpenVPN client to have the option that allows you to read the username and password from a file.
