openvpn connect issues

giulianoz · Sat May 20, 2017 2:06 pm

Hello,
I'm stuck with an openvpn connection problem. It seems not to be a client issue (O tried bothopenvpn connect for android and ios and I get the same issue)

ROS version is 6.39.1

What I've done is using easy-rse3 to generate my ca/server/client certs. I imported the server cert and key + ca cert in ros (ca is flagged T, server cert is flagged TK, so this should be ok)
The ovpn server is configured to use the server certificate I've created

set auth=sha1 certificate=xxx.crt_0 cipher=aes256 default-profile=openvpn enabled=yes require-client-certificate=yes

I tried with and without require-client-certificate

In the ovpn config file I've used ca cert and client cert+key

config.ovpn

proto tcp-client
remote XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX 1194
dev tun
nobind
persist-key

tls-client
ping 10
verb 3

ciphet AES-256-CBC
auth SHA1
pull

auth-user-pass
route XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX 255.255.255.0


<ca>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
[...]
<-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</ca>

<cert>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
[...]
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</cert>

<key>
-----BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----
[...]
-----END ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----
</key>

It seems to me that the CA cert is not valid for some reason, but I can't find one. Clock is correct on both client and ROS

Hi
I had the same problem, but I found the solution (to be honest I was surprised) - OVPN server ROS can not work without authorization by login and password. You must at least use a username with an empty password, otherwise the connection will not be established.
As a result, you get a two-factor authorization - login-password + certificate.
