Re: SOLVED: OpenVPN broken after running over a year
This problem is back. I had a power outage here on 9/2 which caused my modem to cycle and a new IP addresses to be assigned. After this happened, I got messages from OpenVPN clients that they could no longer connect to the server using OpenVPN. Investigating it on my end, I see that the IP address that the OpenVPN client is trying to connect to is an old address.
Last time, I was told that an update on your side broke something with Dynamic DNS for Amahi 8. I haven't upgraded yet and was planning to push through on 8 until October when it will be a quieter time for my little server. Let me know if I need to update my system immediately or if you can resolve this on your side. Thanks, again!

It would be best if you upgraded on your side.Let me know if I need to update my system immediately or if you can resolve this on your side. Thanks, again!
It would be quicker and you then will be on a supported version.

Re: SOLVED: OpenVPN broken after running over a year
Okay, I completed the upgrade to 10 and it appears to be working. I had a lot of things to work through, but I finally got there. I just sent out the updated certificates to my users and they'll let me know if this was really a successful upgrade. A couple of things...
I didn't see easyrsa included with the OpenVPN install. I think it was previously. I ended up installing 10 on a new SSD and copying some of what I needed from my old SSD with 8 installed. One of the things I copied was easyrsa so I could produce custom certificates. In general, I follow this procedure - https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/w ... nVPN-Howto
I used to be able to keep track of VPN connections by using "cat var/log/messages | grep VPN | grep authentication | grep Username". That messages log is no longer there. Where did it go in 10?

FYI - figured out the log file question I had. Replace "cat var/log/messages" with "journalctl". Things seem to be running well.
