Does anyone know what this error message from OpenVPN in (daemon.log)

Wed Jan 18 22:30:07 2006 TCP/UDP: Socket bind failed on local address

I have not specified a specific address and certainly have nothing 
running on port 1194.


looks like a lost openvpn server process, does it show on

ps -ef

Re: [leaf-user] OpenVPN on Bering

I'm only posting a reply to the LEAF list since that is where I prefer 
Leaf Shorewall support to be handled. I also dislike getting involved in 
mail threads that are cross-posted on several lists.

I'm trying to setup a VPN (openvpn version 1.5.0) connection from my home
(ADSL, static IP) to my Office (Static IP).
Both networks have a leaf Bering machine as there firewalls, both running
shorewall 1.4.7c. I followed the guide at
http://www.shorewall.net/1.4/OPENVPN.html but I'm not 100% sure I have got
it right. I can get the openvpn side of things to connect but cannot ping
any machines on either side of the VPN from the firewall or internal
machines.
a) Your Shorewall rules/policies don't permit and fw-vpn traffic so 
that rules out fw access via the tunnel.

b) I believe that the routes that you are adding are specifying the 
wrong gateway -- they should specify the remote end of the tunnel as the 
gateway, not the local end.

c) I suggest that you shorewall clear then debug your tunnel. Once it 
is working that way *then* start Shorewall. You will then be confident 
that any remaining problems are in your Shorewall config and not in your 
tunnel/routing setup.
