OpenVPN Bad compression stub 2.4.5-rc
-
What hardware are you using? The SG-3100 crypto hardware was broken until the most recent snap.
Working good here for me now.Steve
-
2.4.5-rc is a VM qemu/kvm no crypto hardware
2.5.0-devel is an assembled machine, AMD Athlon 200GE with Radeon Vega Graphics
4 CPUs: 1 package(s) x 2 core(s) x 2 hardware threads
AES-NI CPU Crypto: Yes (active) -> OpenVPN say Hardware Crypto: Intel RDRAND engine - RAND

Hmm, I guess something changed there then. We don't often see that selected.
Most are 'omit preference', which I know does work. I assume that works with your tunnel?Steve
-
indeed, omit preferences (use openvpn default) work
-
Hmm, well it should work if it gives you the option. Open a bug if there isn't one already.
Was it this perhaps?: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/10235

probably, yeah but the error message is different

I don't know much about amd based systems. I find they run hot and I usually stick to intel but it seems odd that a amd chip supports intel rdrand engine. I may be wrong though.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RDRAND
AMD added support for the instruction in June 2015amd 200ge is a low power consumptio cpu that run at 30°C

Good to know. Thanks. Maybe netgate should change it from intel rdrand to just rdrand. As far as amd temps go, I had the original 64 bit dual core cpu from amd a number of years ago and it acted like a forced hot air heater. It heated up the room to 80-90 degrees f and then shut it self off from over heating. This is a decent size room too. I was not pushing the cpu ether.
-
The devices / drivers are named after whatever first supports them and they are named that upstream. It would be confusing if we changed that. Hence x86-64 architecture is known as amd64.
