Don't forget to take it out of the sample on the ios page as well.

Re: SOLVED: OpenVPN and IOS - I must be missing something

For clarity, I didn't add that line on the client side.

Re: SOLVED: OpenVPN and IOS - I must be missing something

Sorry, there was a misunderstanding - I added that line on the SERVER side (that is why I needed to know how to restart the OpenVPN service).

Re: OpenVPN and IOS - I must be missing something

sorry, I thought the code would preserve the whitespacing - in case quoting doesn't only the status and following text should not be on separate lines.
persist-key
persist-tun
duplicate-cn
status /var/log/openvpn-status.log

Re: OpenVPN and IOS - I must be missing something

ok, that command worked (I will have to write that one down) and adding the duplicate-cn line to the amahi.conf made it so that both connections can stay open. For what it is worth I put it after the persist-tun line, I don't know exactly where it has/should be but it works placed there. persist-key...

Re: OpenVPN and IOS - I must be missing something

Sorry to ask this (I am more of Ubuntu user than a fedora one), what command line do I need to run to restart the openvpn service remotely (to test if this change will work)? I tried this and it didn't like it [root@localhost openvpn]# systemctl restart openvpn@server.service Job for openvpn@server....

Re: OpenVPN and IOS - I must be missing something

I think this explains it - http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/openvpn-duplicate-cn-recommendation-925896/ from the base server.conf file: Code: # Uncomment this directive if multiple clients # might connect with the same certificate/key # files or common names. This is recommend...

Re: OpenVPN and IOS - I must be missing something

Nah, my typo was the problem (I typed in that ovpn over multiple layers of remote connections so I couldn't see the typo when I initially created it) - I was just surprised that typos in the configuration file don't output any type of diagnostic message in the log on OpenVPN connect. I am now able t...

Re: OpenVPN and IOS - I must be missing something

In looking around I found this page - http://accc.uic.edu/answer/how-do-i-configure-and-use-openvpn-iphone-and-ipad which shows their imported profile as being "Standard Profile" - the one I imported based on https://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/OpenVPN_on_iOS is showing as "Autologin pro...
