I am connecting to the Openvpn from a windows XP computer, but when i connect i am constantly getting "Connection reset, restarting" problem.
I am using RouterOS 6.7.
Kan somebody pinpoint me to what might be the problem?
I have tried almost every possible thing ( created new certificates, created a bridge interface....etc..), but i always get the same error.
I have opnevpn server on other 2 mirktoik routers, and there it is working without problems, but they are routerOS v4.17.
Can it be that the new RouterOS version has a problem with Openvpn?
Here is the Openvpn log:

So the problem occurs when i use "dev tap" in the client.ovpn (windows) file.
When i change the line to "dev tun", then it works fine (tested it from Ubuntu and windows)
The only problem is , when i use "dev tun", how can i force my windows client to use the internet through the vpn connection?
Edit:
I found a solution:
I had to change the mode from "IP" to "ethernet", under OVPN server (on the mikrotik router).
Seems that on the new routerOS the "dev Tap" option is supported only when you select "ethernet" mode.
Now everything is working, except i don't know how can i successfully route all my XP clients internet traffic, to go through the vpn?
