https://rcs.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense/repos/mainline/commits/6c9cf4662eaa2db6cd8eea770f7364aaa9feae99Thanks Jimp! I think that should fix it. The only remaining difference between the before and after version of the OpenVPN config file is "client-config-dir /var/etc/openvpn-csc", which I believe was the intention of the fix for #1417. In otherwords, I got back the ifconfig setting is there is no longer a server setting. Thanks!
Is that fix already included in 20110418-1517 build or should I wait for the next build after that one?
-
Wait for the next new build, I just committed that so it should kick off another build that will upload later tonight.

Doh! I tried the new firmware today. The OpenVPN peer-to-peer SSL/TLS tunnels do NOT start up. In the OpenVPN log, I see the following error:
Options error: --client-config-dir/--ccd-exclusive requires --mode serverSo it seems the client-config-dir setting is only allowed with server mode and not p2p mode. Honestly, I can't figure out what the use case would be for having that client-config-dir setting in a peer to peer tunnel anyway.
Jimp, is it possible to back out that client-config-dir change and just go back to the previous behaviour (i.e. the behaviour prior to fixing bug #1417)? It seems that OpenVPN does not allow client-config-dir with peer-to-peer.
-
Done. Thanks for testing.
-
Hi Jimp,
Thanks for that! I have flashed the new firmware onto a lab router this morning and I can confirm that backing out that change seems to have fixed the services not coming up due to that error. I will try the router in production later today and let you know how it goes. Looks good so far!
-
Yeah except there is still an issue, apparently the peer-to-peer PKI setups are strange beasts which need some extra love. I need to run some more tests and find out how to properly fix that bug.
-
We've been using peer-to-peer PKI in production for several weeks now with no problems until the attempted fix for #1417 the other day. I suppose we could try reconfiguring all p2p tunnels for static key but "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
-
Are you using client-specific-config entries to specify iroutes to client networks?

No way. Not at all. But maybe the user that originally requested #1417 was trying to do that.
Personally, I don't think client specific config entries makes sense for p2p and neither does OpenVPN and that's why it spit out that error message "Options error: –client-config-dir/--ccd-exclusive requires --mode server".
-
Well it is required for Peer to Peer (SSL/TLS) - just not Peer to Peer (Shared Key) - that's what I was referring to, SSL/TLS is the "PKI" I was referring to earlier.
For Peer to Peer (SSL/TLS) you need iroutes to get routes back to your remote sites that connect to the server instance.
-
I think I've got this sorted for sure, it works for me in a Peer-to-Peer (SSL/TLS) setup with iroutes between two VM networks.

Either try that change or wait for the next new snapshot and then try it again.

Hy team ,
the issue still remains . I have updated to the last version "2.0-RC1 (amd64)
built on Mon Apr 25 23:01:13 EDT 2011" the same error :
…....
openvpn[41007]: Options error: –server directive network/netmask combination is invalid
.......
The tunnels defined :Server Mode : Peer to Peer ( SSL/TLS )
Protocol : UDP
Device Mode : tunBest Regards,

What does you /var/etc/openvpn/server*.conf look like for that instance?

What is in the tunnel network box for that connection in the GUI? It shouldn't be /32, at least /30 is needed there.
-
Hi Jimp,
you have right , normally i should be at least /32 … but i have a look on GIU and the Tunnel Network it is defined as 10.4.8.25/32.If you want i can provide you the access to the pfsense server, send me an e-mail to ionut@myd.ro.
Best Regards,
Daniel
PS: 32 ... 255.255.255.255. .. my mistake ... anyway i will do the modification ...

Anyway i have made the modification with / 30
