OpenVPN Client Export Issue
-
Hey All,
I'm having an issue with the Client Export for my OpenVPN (both Windows Installers 2.2 and 2.3-x86). I'm receiving an error message stating:
"C:\Users\…. <download file="" path="">A referral was returned from the server."
This error message appears after I have downloaded the file and try to run the installer as either standard or admin.
The strange thing is, this only happens on the few test PCs I have joined to our domain. The normal non-domain PCs work just fine. I have already configured pfSense for OpenVPN with RADIUS via Active Directory (from these instructions: http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/OpenVPN_with_RADIUS_via_Active_Directory)
This is a major issue because I am supposed to be deploying our AD solution company-wide by this Friday, but the only piece that is holding me up is this VPN issue.
Any thoughts/suggestions???

If you Google "A referral was returned from the server" (not specific to openvpn nor pfSense) you'll find the cause and cure, it's something in your AD permissions or setup.

Thanks for the reply. I ended up figuring out that a UAC permission was blocking the installation.
FYI for anyone else running into this problem that has all UAC's turned on, disable only these two:
User Account Control: Detect application installations and prompt for elevation
User Account Control: Only elevate executables that are signed and validatedI'm not sure exactly which one did the trick because even after forcing policy updates it still took a while for some replication, but I know for a fact that with these two disabled I am now able to install any application.
