gadmin-openvpn-client won't activate connection


I can get a tunnel connected via terminal with: openvpn --config client.ovpn

However, when I tried to use the "friedly" gui (gadmin-openvpn-client), it keeps telling me to "import server certificates into client first."

I don't know what that means. Nor, do I see a tun device...

Thanks,
WT

Please post your thread in only one forum. Posting a single thread in the most relevant forum will make it easier for members to help you and will keep the discussion in one place. This thread is being closed because it is a duplicate of:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-issue-857137/

You've been here long enough to know better. Also note that by posting in 2 places you left yourself open for a member to remind of the rules -- this removed both threads from the 0-reply list & lowered your chances of getting an answer.

Since your phrasing is not identical in each thread, you might want the other one to include all relevant info.

Best of luck w/ getting an answer.
