Connection issue: keep getting error code 1

Post by dd2594se » Thu Apr 09, 2015 2:39 am

Let first state:

I have installed the SoftEther VPN Server on a Linux 64-bit system (Fedora 21) and it is operating correctly (actually two different locations, both are working correctly). I am able to connect to the system from multiple locations without issue using the SoftEther VPN Client on both Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.

The issue - some locations will report an Error Code 1 when attempting to connect to the SoftEther VPN Server using the SoftEther VPN Client from either of the working laptops running Windows 7 or Windows 8.1.

In fact in one instance I can connect Client1 (Windows 8.1 SoftEther VPN Client) to ServerA (SoftEther VPN Server) from location Z without issue. I attempt to connect Client1 (Windows 8.1 SoftEther VPN Client) to ServerB (SoftEther VPN Server) from location Z I get an error code 1.

Yet I know it is all functional since I can from location Y connect to both ServerA and ServerB using Client1.

Is there a way to adjust the timeout on the waiting for the connection? It is not 1) the Client - as per above; 2) the Servers - as per above; 3) DNS - I am able to connect SSH from every location using DNS without issue. It appears to be something in just not waiting long enough for a slower connection to be made in the initial TCP connect.

Any ideas?

FYI Versions:

SoftEther VPN Server: SoftEther VPN Server (64 bit) Version 4.15 Build 9537 (English)
SoftEther VPN Client: SoftEther VPN 4.0 (Ver. 4.15, Build 9537)

You can change timeout limit.
https://github.com/SoftEtherVPN/SoftEth ... ar/Cedar.h

#define CONNECTING_TIMEOUT (15 * 1000) // Timeout in seconds of being connected
