Hi,

I'm trying to connect my newly OpenSense installed device to AirVPN. I'm stuck with configuring the connection properly.
First, I tried entering all lines manually, where possible.1439122851_ScreenShot11-22-22at09_53AM.thumb.PNG.ee0d5564a7bc4eef052e7e0eb54cd696.PNG

My generated ovpn file is as follows:

I couldn't connect to AirVPN properly. Tried removing nobind as there is an incompatibility with local, which I didn't know exactly.

the result is similar.

Tried several things here, without luck:
- Using IP address instead of host.
- Disabling TLS auth and putting all the lines into Advanced section.
Can you help?

Hello!

The critical error is here:
2022-11-22T10:51:11    Warning    openvpn     Cannot load private key file /var/etc/openvpn/client1.key

Please make sure that the file exists, that it can be accessed by openvpn (check ownership and permissions) and that it's indeed your AirVPN client key. In the Configuration Generator. if you have split the configuration from certificates and keys, the client key is user.key

As far as we see from the screenshots, you will also have to delete your username and password from the OpenVPN configuration panel, since Air VPN servers don't authenticate clients via username and password.

Kind regards

It seems the file is there, but something is wrong with the client1.conf contents:

dev ovpnc1
verb 1
dev-type tun
dev-node /dev/tun1
writepid /var/run/openvpn_client1.pid
script-security 3
daemon
keepalive 10 60
ping-timer-rem
persist-tun
persist-key
proto tcp4-client
cipher AES-256-GCM
auth SHA512
up /usr/local/etc/inc/plugins.inc.d/openvpn/ovpn-linkup
down /usr/local/etc/inc/plugins.inc.d/openvpn/ovpn-linkdown
local 192.168.0.13
tls-client
client
lport 0
management /var/etc/openvpn/client1.sock unix
remote nl4.vpn.airdns.org 41185
ca /var/etc/openvpn/client1.ca 
cert /var/etc/openvpn/client1.cert 
key /var/etc/openvpn/client1.key 
tls-auth /var/etc/openvpn/client1.tls-auth 1
comp-lzo no
resolv-retry infinite
persist-key
persist-tun
auth-nocache
verb 3
remote-cert-tls server

Seems not to be correct to me. Shall I edit these lines manually? What will you recommend?

So, nothing to add, @Staff?


Hello!

Let's see the new OpenVPN log, after the previously mentioned changes, at your convenience.

Kind regards

I dont quite understand what that client1.conf is. Do you load that into OPNsense somehow?

This is what the openvpn client config in OPNsense looks like for me:
image.thumb.png.ce2082bf8a76e6f2541333db860b434d.png

The private key should not be referenced on disk, it should be added under trust / certificates.

My Advanced configuration is empty. You shouldn't need to add anything there and only set the options that OPNsense GUI provides. It should work like that. Once that works, you can try adding Advanced configuration options, but they are not required.

If it still doesn't work, set logging to 6 or higher and provide the logging.

Edit: I would personally also check the option to Don't pull routes because you will most likely want to setup policy based routing in your firewall rules.

How could I set this?

How could I translate these lines into OpnSense one-by-one please?

ca "ca.crt"
cert "user.crt"
key "user.key"
remote-cert-tls server
tls-crypt "tls-crypt.key"

You dont have to. Import the certs at trusts by copy/pasting them into the fields. Include the private key as well (error in your logs). And then select them when creating your openvpn client.
