      Here is a screen shot of the wizard showing the options for "none". There are no other options available.

        Are you running current instances and they are working? I can not seem to duplicate this.

            What version of pfSense are you running? And on what hardware?

            It's possible that your installation is broken in some way. Those cipher lists are generated dynamically based on what OpenVPN outputs as being available for your platform.

              The version of pfSense is 2.4.3. This is a brand new Netgate rack mount unit that has only been in service a couple of months. It has had very little if any changes other then the start up config. And no packages have been added other then the OpenVPN. Are there any other methods to try and determine why the open VPN wizard is not working correctly?

                Upgrade to 2.4.4 and try again.

                    So if they updated the export package that has openvpn-2.4.6_1 as dependency that would install as well? Yeah that could get all messed up I think if your pfsense still actually only 2.4.3..

                      I notice that there is a small upgrade to the core boot. Both will require a reboot. Which should be done first?

                        Upgrade to 2.4.4 before touching any packages.

                          After upgrading the router and creating a new VPN server with the wizard all the needed settings were there. The VPN is now working and connecting correctly. Thanks very much for the help on this!
