zCua Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Hey, I'm using an Ubuntu virtual machine to host an openvpn server. I've set up the server by running the automated version of this installation (https://github.com/angristan/openvpn-install#faq), which outputs a config file and does not require a username/password from what I understand. I've pasted the contents of the config file into the Advanced Setup configuration for Hybrid VPN: [Redacted] However the log shows the following error: Any advice would be amazing Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Welcome to the forum! We've had a couple of users try this before and from memory it's not possible through Hybrid VPN, but it should work if you just use the Open VPN desktop client. Are you able to configure a username and password for the Open VPN server then enter these when configuring Hybrid VPN through the advanced config?

zCua Posted June 28, 2021 Author Share Posted June 28, 2021 Hey! Thanks for the response. Unfortunately even my PC couldn't connect to the VPN network, but someone suggested I might need to port forward 1194 for openVPN. Will look around for how to do this correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 28, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 28, 2021 You can try adding auth-user-pass to the config and see if that works with the desktop client or setting a password on the server itself if possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Featured Comment zCua Posted July 1, 2021 Author Featured Comment Share Posted July 1, 2021 Thank you so much for the replies, really appreciate it guys. Have managed to fix the issue. My virtual machine was only accepting data from the port connected to the host machine. I allowed UDP input over port 1194. On the advice of someone with a similar issue I also updated to the DumaOS 3.0 beta for the XR500 and used "client" for both username and password in the advanced settings for Hybrid VPN. I'm now up and running without issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
