      Hi to all,

      I have a problem with the OpenVPN and Road Warrior.
      This is the situation:
      The OpenVPN server address is 2.2.2.2 and the outbound NAT for the entire company is 2.2.2.4
      When the road warrior connects from the internet the connection is unusable. For the first period (about a minute) the connection is OK.
      After, the connection is reset by the server with error Connection reset, restarting [-1] or Inactivity timeout (–ping-restart), restarting

      Can someone help me?

      Regards

        If you connect and then are disconnected a minute later, the most likely cause is having two clients connected with the same username/cert at the same time.

        When one connects, it will work for a minute, and then the other one will reconnect after 60 seconds and bump the first one off, and then it will work for 60 seconds until the first one reconnects and bumps it off, repeat, repeat, repeat…

          Hi,

          thx for the reposnse.
          I have try with windows, mac, linux, iphone, android, etc…. and the connection is very instable... In the GUI I view only one connection and I'm sure that the client try to conenct once. About 10 - 15 days ago the OpenVPN works perfectly...
