This is a screenshot of configuring the server and client. Server host is filled in my own computer ip, other configuration is automatic, I did not change. But it just won't connect. My computer is win10 enterprise version system, is a separate network.

net stop SEVPNSERVER
nc -l 5555
net start SEVPNSERVER

Code: Select all

SoftEther VPN Server Manager
---------------------------
Protocol error occurred. Error was returned from the destination server.
---------------------------
OK   
Which means...
- get rid of whatever else is running on SE's port
- or change connection port

BTW, when you've done it you'll discover that running SE client on the same LAN is a horrible idea.

Please check whether my server and client are equipped with que correctly. If the configuration is correct, why the connection fails?

Translation?

Anyway, change the port from 443 to 992.

I changed port 443 to 991 as suggested, but it still cannot be connected.

Is it now Error Code 12?
"Access has been denied"?
"Akusesu wa kyohi sa remashita"?
Maybe you forgot your password, check this thread https://www.vpnusers.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=5762

The password is correct.

The password is correct.It's not the password that's causing the problem.
