OpenVPN Issue

[lucky]

Hi all,

I tried making a config change and encountered a problem. OpenVPN will not start and the system log shows:

openvpn[36052]: Options error: –client-connect requires --mode server

What I did was change the server mode from "Remote Access SSL/TLS" to "Remote Access SSL/TLS + User Auth". Interestingly, I am running two instances of OpenVPN, one in TUN device mode and one TAP. The TUN mode instance doesn't have this problem.

Devs, let me know if I can provide anything that helps troubleshoot.

What size tunnel network do you have set? Looks like what can happen if you set the subnet too small, it should be, for example, a /24, and not a /30.

We'd need to see screenshots, or a transcription of, all of the settings on the page to say anything for certain.

Oh, also, I created a bridge for OPT2 (should be the OpenVPN TAP interface) to a physical network interface in the firewall that I want that vpn instance to put vpn clients on.

Again - this all works fine when the mode is "Remote Access (SSL/TLS)".
