Hi, Let me try to collect some logs – the issue is that I’m using NSSM … so it restarts openvpn on a crash, and wipes out the log (resets). FYI, here is what I see from the management interface (as this is what my app is using) – first line is from the management interface (second one from my app), [ 344] Mangement FATAL Message Received: >FATAL:TUN/TAP I/O operation aborted, exiting [ 345] ERROR: OpenVPN Exiting, Event Raised to allow Reconnection to Management Interface!
So it is exiting, just need more details if possible. And to clarify below … DHCP is for the IP address from my server, inside the subnet (so I’m on the same subnet as my network). Make sense? The external interface is fixed (IP and port).

And to the other email I just sent (that seemed to bounce?), Probably my mistake, in one of the posts I changed the address from devel to users unintentionally.. Yes, this is a Windows 7 machine. I think the issue is standby / network change related. In particular, standby / resume seems to cause a lot of grief. I also run on a desktop, not near as many (or really any) issues. But standby / resume -> crash! FYI, just had this exact issue, 1 minute ago. Got an OpenVPN connection, but no IP address (DHCP). Killed openvpn, disable / enable TAP, start openvpn and reconnect -> life is good again. Pretty reliable to make this happen … •. [X] Our home laptop goes from sleep to resume all the time without major issues. But we are not connecting to any public servers -- private servers that run on a fixed IP and port, no DHCP, so may be that is one difference? We have one Windows 7 laptop in a really really remote location that is set to stay connected all the time.. The local network at that site crashes at least twice a day and still the VPN comes back every time the network is back. Its set not to sleep, so more like a desktop, but it does occasionally move from one site to another. Considering the remoteness of the location and the flakiness of the remote network I have been more than impressed by the way openvpn has served us for last 3 years. But roaming is something I haven't tested much at all. When users travel they do get connectivity from hotels etc., so that kind of "network change" works well too. Perhaps some more detailed logs to debug? Sure, would help. Regards, Selva
