Lads, and ladies, I was wondering if anyone else comes across this issue where Openvpn client gives the following error
04:38:33 78906 openvpn[56335]: Control Channel Authentication: using '/etc/openvpn/tlsauth.pem' as a OpenVPN static key file Apr 16 04:38:33 78906 openvpn[56335]: UDPv4 link local (bound): [undef] Apr 16 04:38:33 78906 openvpn[56335]: UDPv4 link remote: [AF_INET]i.p.address:443 Apr 16 04:38:33 78906 openvpn[56335]: write UDPv4: Can't assign requested address (code=49) Apr 16 04:38:35 78906 openvpn[56335]: write UDPv4: Can't assign requested address (code=49) I see references on OpenVPn fora that it is an issue with the routing table getting corrupt which sounds a bit weird when other access to the system seems ok but doing a restart of the physical network interface with the route that openvpn uses to connect to the server has anyone else come across this issue Ill try to do more in depth debugging when the issue arrises is there any way of verifyin the route table I use route -n show and it looks normal enough arp -an looked fine also # arp -an Host Ethernet Address Netif Expire Flags 192.168.1.1 6c:3b:6b:e6:04:ab em0 19m46s 192.168.1.110 00:0d:b9:42:dc:68 em0 permanent l # route -n show Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Mtu Prio Iface default 192.168.1.1 UGS 3 1066720 - 8 em0 224/4 127.0.0.1 URS 0 2162 32768 8 lo0 127/8 127.0.0.1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UHl 1 736 32768 1 lo0 192.168.1/24 192.168.1.110 UC 1 6662 - 4 em0 192.168.1.1 6c:3b:6b:e6:04:ab UHLc 2 27648 - 4 em0 192.168.1.110 00:0d:b9:42:dc:68 UHLl 0 105119892 - 1 em0 192.168.1.255 192.168.1.110 UHb 0 0 - 1 em0 Internet6: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Mtu Prio Iface ::/96 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 ::/104 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 ::1 ::1 UHl 14 14 32768 1 lo0 ::127.0.0.0/104 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 ::224.0.0.0/100 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 ::255.0.0.0/104 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 ::ffff:0.0.0.0/96 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 2002::/24 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 2002:7f00::/24 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 2002:e000::/20 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 2002:ff00::/24 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 fe80::/10 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 fec0::/10 ::1 UGRS 0 0 32768 8 lo0 fe80::1%lo0 fe80::1%lo0 UHl 0 0 32768 1 lo0 ff01::/16 ::1 UGRS 11 11 32768 8 lo0 ff01::%lo0/32 ::1 Um 0 1 32768 4 lo0 ff02::/16 ::1 UGRS 11 11 32768 8 lo0 ff02::%lo0/32 ::1 Um 0 1 32768 4 lo0
