Hi, im trying to setup Softether and i don't know if i'm missing something or what but after installing the package (4.25.9656) i get the message:
**************************************************************************
To run softether vpn client from startup, add
softether_client_enable="YES" in your rc.conf.
To run softether vpn server from startup, add
softether_server_enable="YES" in your rc.conf.
To run softether vpn bridge from startup, add
softether_bridge_enable="YES" in your rc.conf.
Initial and further configuration of all softether services can be
done either by using a Windows client to connect to the running
services or by vpncmd from command line.
Please note client and bridge functionality is not fully
supported on FreeBSD right now.
When removing SoftEther VPN without the desire to reinstall, please
ensure to remove the directory /var/db/softether as well.
**************************************************************************
But i can't figure out how to connect the "Server Manager" (both remote app and from the opnsense cli), if i do a "Check" from the cli it passes all stages so i suppose the installation it's fine but something it's missing.
I tried to find information on installing Softether on FreeBSD but can't find anything.
Reading the forum it seems a few have tried the same and did get it working, even the auto-startup, but most post are from quite some time ago.

ATM I'm on Softether to write a plugin, but I'm also stuck at this stage. The FreeBSD port also lacks some features compared to Windows.

If you take a look at the softether page they don't recommend FreeBSD or other Unix OS but say that the generic Linux instructions should be similar, however, on they installation notes, they don't use a package but rather they make an executable from the source code, and i don't know how that compares to the package, because i can't find the files after installation as you can after you make the executable on Fedora for example.
