Hi Experts, I have been trying to get openvpn working on my gentoo server, but unfortunately its not working. I am running the below command and getting error as below -

Quote:
# openvpn --config /sw/pfSense-UDP4-1194-config.ovpn

Tue Mar 3 23:44:39 2020 SIGTERM[soft,auth-failure] received, process exiting


If I use the same username and password and connect to the same ip via some other server or machines, it immediately connects. Please suggest if I am missing something because I am now completely out of ideas.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Could you post the output of
Code:
emerge -pv openvpn
? I have the impression you are missing a useflag.
