      From what configuration are these logs. What did you setup in the GUI exactly? After you posted about deleting directories, overwriting configs etc. I'm not sure what you are running and where you set it up. So why not starting from scratch: deleting all, creating a fresh new client and try setting it up with the values at hand (from your config on top):

      • Peer to peer, TLS
      • UDP on v4
      • tun
      • <your WAN interface>
      • server host: 10-1-us.cg-dialup.net
      • server port 443 (that is real strange - udp/443 isn't something normally used but maybe CG does it)
      • no proxy settings
      • <your description>
      • <username>
      • <password>
      • [ ] do not retry
      • disable TLS key usage -> [ ] use a TLS key
      • peer CA: import the ca.crt from CG
      • peer CRL -> none
      • client cert: import the client.crt and the client.key
      • encryption: AES-256-CBC
      • disable NCP (CG config doesn't include it)
      • Auth digest: SHA256
      • leave tunnel network blank (none given in the config)
      • leave remote network
      • compression: omit preference (as the CG file has comp-lzo -> that's no that nice because of VORACLE)
      • topology net30 (I assume from your screenshot when dialed in (.62 -> .61) that they still use net30
      • leave the rest
      • set gw creation to v4 only
      • verbosity level 3

      try that one and test/log

        Also as I just saw that:

        https://forum.netgate.com/topic/146714/tunneled-isp-cheat-sheet

        have a look at the zoomed in graphic as it shows, which settings come from what UI / custom selection box. But not every setting you see in some companies OVPN config you have to recreate as some are simple default OVPN stuff. So try with a minimum and work your way up. :)

        Also the config shown in the linux shell above has it's default gw set to the OVPN endpoint. I'm not sure you actually want to do that. So keep the option "don't pull routes" in mind.

          Thanks...I was thinking pretty much the same thing. I deleted the VPN config and restarted. I was not able to get any further, but I will delete it again and retry with your suggested settings. I was able to figure out a few things. pfSense wants the local, not the nobind setting, so I dropped that and the ping settings (which kick up another error). I also clicked on the don't add routes option. That's been reported for other VPNs to cause problems.

          I will give your link a look and try again...

          Thanks,

            So, I tried exactly your posted values. Again, I had to remove the ping statements from the advanced config settings pasted into the pfsense web page. They conflict with --keepalive.

            Sep 22 22:18:10 aquaduct openvpn[83949]: Options error: --keepalive conflicts with --ping, --ping-exit, or --ping-restart.  If you use --keepalive, you don't need any of the other --ping directives.

            Next, the logs complained that --local and --nobind were in conflict. It appears that --local is a non-optional setting in pfSense, so I had no choice but to remove --nobind from the list of advanced configs.

            Sep 22 22:21:01 aquaduct openvpn[53522]: Options error: --local and --nobind don't make sense when used together

            That left me with:

            resolv-retry infinite 
redirect-gateway def1
persist-key
persist-tun
explicit-exit-notify 2
script-security 2
remote-cert-tls server
route-delay 5
tun-mtu 1500 
fragment 1300
mssfix 1200

            I tried clicking on "Don't pull routes" and when that did not work, added, "Don't add or remove routes automatically". I turned the latter off after trying once. The variations on routes doesn't seem to change anything.

            Here is my recent logs:

                @obitori said in CyberGhost openvpn config files for client get mangled by pfdense web:

                Again, I had to remove the ping statements from the advanced config settings pasted into the pfsense web page. They conflict with --keepalive.

                I did't say anything about advanced / custom options. Why are you so insistent to put them there? Just try it with less and only add what's necessary in the configuration when you're told so by the error logs. Also you tried setting "don't pull routes" but set redirect-gateway def1. That's just plain stupid as the latter one will setup your default GW to the VPN tunnel while your checkbox will try to avoid that. Just stop adding stuff in the custom options because "it says so".

                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.

                  FYI, I tried a "plain" pfSense config and then sequentially pasted in "advanced configs" to see the result. I basically got the same errors and no combination of pfSense and "advanced config options" worked. I had to leave for international travel, so have to push this off for now.

                  If you have any additional ideas on how to proceed, please let me know. I will tackle this again next week.

                    Hi All ,

                    Here in 2020 same issue and this was my fix : compression: omit preference .
                    Works with PfBlocker unbound too .

                    Thanks @JeGr

                    Peer to peer, TLS
                    UDP on v4
                    tun

                    server host: Your Server
                    server port 443 (that is real strange - udp/443 isn't something normally used but maybe CG does it)
                    no proxy settings
                    <your description>
                    <username>
                    <password>

                    do not retry

                    use a TLS key

                    peer CA: import the ca.crt from CG
                    peer CRL -> none
                    client cert: import the client.crt and the client.key
                    encryption: AES-256-CBC
                    disable NCP (CG config doesn't include it)
                    Auth digest: SHA256
                    leave tunnel network blank (none given in the config)
                    leave remote network
                    compression: omit preference (as the CG file has comp-lzo -> that's no that nice because of VORACLE)
                    topology net30 (I assume from your screenshot when dialed in (.62 -> .61) that they still use net30
                    leave the rest
                    set gw creation to v4 only
                    verbosity level 3

                      @antonio76 This post is old. However, I can't thanks enough that I found solution here!! CyberGhost set VPN port config1194 but they are actual 443. So weird, that they send out something that not match with their server.
