Is there a good tutorial for openvpn under Fedora? I've followed the instructions at <http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=595436> but they seem to have made things worse rather than better. When I restart openvpn on my desktop (in another country) I see in /var/log/messages ------------------------------------ Jan 2 12:43:19 alfred openvpn[2384]: 87.6.120.53:32967 TLS: Initial packet from 87.6.120.53:32967, sid=be7818b0 fa8fd179 Jan 2 12:43:20 alfred openvpn[2384]: read UDPv4 [ECONNREFUSED]: Connection refused (code=111) Jan 2 12:43:21 alfred last message repeated 4 times Jan 2 12:43:22 alfred openvpn[2384]: 87.6.120.53:32967 TLS: new session incoming connection from 87.6.120.53:32967 Jan 2 12:43:23 alfred openvpn[2384]: read UDPv4 [ECONNREFUSED]: Connection refused (code=111) Jan 2 12:43:24 alfred last message repeated 4 times Jan 2 12:43:25 alfred openvpn[2384]: 87.6.120.53:32967 TLS: new session incoming connection from 87.6.120.53:32967 ------------------------------------ while when I restart openvpn on my laptop I see ------------------------------------ Jan 2 13:46:23 martha openvpn[3810]: UDPv4 link local: [undef] Jan 2 13:46:23 martha openvpn[3810]: UDPv4 link remote: 86.43.71.228:1194 Jan 2 13:46:23 martha openvpn[3810]: TLS Error: Unroutable control packet received from 86.43.71.228:1194 (si=3 op=P_CONTROL_V1) ------------------------------------ Ifconfig shows a tun0 device on my desktop: ------------------------------------ tun0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 inet addr:192.168.5.1 P-t-P:192.168.5.2 Mask:255.255.255.255 ------------------------------------ but there is no tun? device on my laptop. [There was a tun0 device before I followed the advice mentioned above.] Is there an openvpn doctor in the house?
