Title: OpenVPN TLS Handshake Fails
Post by: TheCodeGeek on January 24, 2021, 08:35:33 AM
Hey folks,

I am having an issue getting my VPN to work. I see logs in both ends (Client and OPNsense) and they both read the same I think for the most part. But I can't seem to figure out why the handshake keeps failing. I am attaching the logs with my IP address replaced with <MY IP> for privacy. Can someone please help, this is time-sensitive, I need it working by Noon tomorrow.

Edit: BTW, I followed the tutorial at https://www.sparklabs.com/support/kb/article/setting-up-an-openvpn-server-with-opnsense-and-viscosity/

Thank you for the link, I checked all of this and suspect that it could be that I need to forward port 1194 to the first IP on my remote subnet (10.0.8.1), but I missed my deadline and won't be able to try this until later in the week. I have already made an exception for the primary Viscocity application and the port on my client's workstation in and out. I will try port forwarding and post my results.
