OpenVPN - Port problem
« on: March 13, 2014, 05:45:27 pm »
Hi,
in my Zentyal server I have created two openvpn server settings. The first use the standard port 1194 and it works perfect. The second I set a custom port 6610 but in this case openvpn dosen't respond at this port.
I need to configure the port in an other place?

My Zentyal version is 3.3.5

Thanks

Marco

You must edit or add a new service that has that port open in the firewall so you can have access from internet to Zentyal.

When I install OpenVPN port is automatically opened but Zentyal does not recognize these customizations in your Firewall rules, you must enable them manually.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the suggestion.
I tried it but I cannot connect to the server.
I make this test:

from another computer in the terminal I do:
Quote
nc -zu ip_server vpn_port
For the standrd port 1194 i get:
Quote
Connection to ip_server port vpn_port [udp/openvpn] successed!
for the custom port I get:
Quote
Connection to ip_server port vpn_port [udp/*] successed!

I tried also from the local netowrk but is the same: vpn with port 1194 works, vpn with custom port no.

Thanks for help!
