      I am doing this for the first time, but have been careful to follow instructions, copy and paste the right certs, etc.  One difficulty is that the whole process is monolithic, so it is virtually impossible for a newbie like myself to know where I slipped up.  You have to do everything straight thru to the end and hope that it works.  If it doesn't, the logs are not very helpful (to me at least), but I pasted them below.  The fact that a number of people have complained about errors in the PureVPN instructions is not particularly encouraging.  If anyone can point me towards the right thing to debug that would be great.  It does not look like the VPN connection is occurring…Not sure what the exact problem is.
