Title: [SOLVED] Setting up RoadWarrior OpenVPN
Post by: purpleimpala on June 11, 2016, 01:40:40 am

I'm using OPNsense 6.1.16-amd64, and following the instructions at https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/sslvpn_client.html .  I am trying to set up 2FA.

(Aside: there's some material missing in Step 0: Preparation in the section entitled "Create a Certificate" where it says "Fill in the form with (leave the rest default):".  Here it needs to mention that the certificate to be created is a Server certificate called "SSLVPN Server Certificate" (for example, to match the text later).)

My problem comes in Step 1: Add SSL server.  When you click the orange box saying "+ Add Server", the form doesn't include a field to select the Backend Authenticator.  This means that when you click "Save", you get an error message at the top of the form pointing out that you must select a Backend Authentication method, but you can't.

If you use the Wizard to add a server (which took me a bit of working out - it's not so obvious that you can click on the magic wand) then at least you can add a server, because the first step is to set up a new Authentication Backend of one of three types (but none of them are OTP unfortunately).

Is there a workaround for this?

Make sure your firmware version is 16.1.16, and that you do execute Step 0 "Configure TOTP server". If there is no TOTP server, you will not be able to select it in Step 1.

I have the same issue with 16.1.16, there is no "Backend for authentication" option field (totp Server is configured)

Yes, it is 16.1.16, and yes, the TOTP server is configured and present.  The point is, the OpenVPN "Add Server" dialog doesn't have a field for selecting the backend.

BTW this is a fresh install of OPNsense.

Ah, I can see now. Can you try this fix run from the root console shell (Option 8):

# opnsense-patch 6ffc213

Ok, thanks for confirming. This will be shipping in 16.1.17. A mobile portability fix interfered with the addition of this field.

Yes, I can see and select the field as expected with this patch. Thanks!

Ok, sorry about the hiccup here. 16.1.17 will be released on Wednesday.
