      I have been setup OpenVPN on pfsense 2.0.3,create a client account, export to a windows 7 32bit machine.
      some times win7's openvpn client failed to connect to the pfsense-2.0.3,

      the client's log message:

      Mon Jun 17 13:13:48 2013 IMPORTANT: OpenVPN's default port number is now 1194, based on an official port number assignment by IANA.  OpenVPN 2.0-beta16 and earlier used 5000 as the default port.

      the openvpn official website suggest to check out the firewall's rules, but I am sure that there's no mistake about ruleset. and my win7 client could connect to pfsense last night.

      any suggestion?
