cd vpnserver
cp -va /tmp/vpnserver/ /
cd vpnserver/

Created init.d script

#!/bin/sh
# chkconfig: 2345 99 01

DAEMON=/usr/local/vpnserver/vpnserver
LOCK=/var/lock/subsys/vpnserver
test -x $DAEMON || exit 0
case "$1" in
start)
$DAEMON start
touch $LOCK

$DAEMON stop
rm $LOCK

restart)
$DAEMON stop
sleep 3
$DAEMON start
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
exit 1
esac
exit 0

Works server starts stop & restart

When I check if it listens to a port

Code: Select all

netstat -ltnp | grep -w ':1194' 
tcp6       0      0 :::1194                 :::*                    LISTEN      4918/vpnserver   

Great works.

Create user
Create certificate for user
Create certificate on server

Try to log in on all different ways, password, certificate, no password, but get the message Error (Error Code 9): User authentication failed.

How to solve this?

Thanks for any advice!
