      it's possible but you are not providing enought information, you should post screenshot of your configuration to see if it's realy like you say and we need the complete log from openvpn, increase verbosity if needed
      i would upgrade the other site too, 2.3.4 is very old and unsupported now

        Come back when both sides are currently supported versions ;) Zero motivation to help someone that can not be bothered to even keep their firewall current.

        are there any issues with 2.4.4 with 2.3.4? 32bit with 64bit?

        Lets say are just for discussion purposes... The fix for that would be to updated the outdated version to current.. So come back when that has happened and your still having issues.

          Hi kiokoman and johnpoz,

          I plan to upgrade the other site version, but needed time to schedule a visit to the place. So for time being, i'm stuck with 2.3.4 at the other site. So my options are to drop telegraf curiosity and use previous 2.3.4 to connect, or solved this if possible.

          *sorry for the long screenshot

          this is screenshot for the client (2.4.4):

          this is for server side (2.3.4):

          this is log for client side:

            try to change "Compression" try to set it on, both device, instead of "No Preference" or try to set it off on both device
            idk what you have available on 2.3.4, anyway they must match

              It works!! Thanks for yours eagle eye Kiokoman!!
              I missed the compression, I just missed it completely
              It's very different options in 2.4.4 compared to 2.3.x or 2.2.x
              I take it for granted that it would not change

              I tried diff compression options, and the one that works best for me is:
              at 2.4.4 use LZO Compression [Legacy style, comp-lzo yes]
              at 2.3.4 use Enable without Adaptive Compression

              thank you again

                          you do NOT have the same problem as the OP. So please don't just jump on any thread because it's OpenVPN and post your problem but open a new one, describe your problem as much as possible and we'll see if we can help you. Also with a custom option box as full as that I'd just delete the thing and start over manually instead of some shady docs from VPN services.

                          Don't forget to upvote 👍 those who kindly offered their time and brainpower to help you!

                          If you're interested, I'm available to discuss details of German-speaking paid support (for companies) if needed.
