With my server certificate in PEM format and with the required intermediates and private key, I then issue the following which looks like the same command you are using : openssl pkcs12 -export -in www-example-com.

The argument to -in must be a certificate. You need a certificate, not a private key : — jww. OK, I'm confused. I'm using IIS. I've never had to use the command, though.

Is there another way I can confirm my client is using the correct port? Post by kraze » Sun Sep 15, am I wrote a reply back to what you said but in this case I'll admit I was incorrect. I was able to identify my mistake on the server and the server side VPN is now running properly.

However, I am still unable to connect with the client. I grabbed new copies of both the client and server config and edited the directories. This is now the exact client config I am running.

I moved the newly generated ta. It seems to still be erroring out with the same error. Post by kraze » Sun Sep 15, am I will regenerate the certificate and report back on that.

Not only does it help me in connecting to a VPN the way I prefer to without having to buy another router--it is quite an educational experience for me, so I'd be glad to provide some value in return in monetary form!

For some reason the one embeded in the code on vyprvpn's website has spaces instead. So I went back and changed it in notepad so that I had the following:. Now when I try to connect, it works for a little bit longer after i press the "Start Now" button than before but still refuses to connect. Submit a Download Registered Users Only.
