Hi all, I spent hours with this without success. Can anyone write here how they did if they got lucky?
I have the server running on the NAS. The configuration page works. I created users/password.
I even created a cert/private key using the built in vpncmd tool.
I don't know if I need to do anything else on the sever. Updating the config? SHould I set a reference to those cert & private key somewhere?
On the client side, I'm using Android with OpenVPN client and I can't get to connect. What options should I use?
Any other solution would be great too: You use a different VPN server? Different client?
I have OpenVPN server installed on the NAS too, but something, I can't get it to work.
Any help would be really appreciated!
Hi jy_p,
It will be a huge learning curve. Softether's forum doesn't offer much help either.
However, 3 quarters of your time could be reduced if you install "Softether VPN Server Manager for Windows".
Sofether works well with Iphone & PC client although I have less luck trying it on Android probably due to the fact it doesn't accept password authentication.
If I were you, I ditch OpenVPN for good. Softether's Client & Server work better on your NAS.
In so far, I managed to turn on SecureNat; Layer 3 Switching; Layer 2 Bridge Connection; Cascade Connection; L2TP protocol, OpenVpn, MS-SSTP protocol; IP routing, Split Tunneling; Tunneling of Virtual Hubs at 3 remote locations, password authentication & Individual authentication certificates. I am looking at installing radius server authentication in the near future.
Softether works well for people who do not own broadband account and has no control over password-locked wifi router. It could tunnels thru all kind firewalls easily & securely.
Hope this helps
It is a great Add-On, I hope vtverdohleb could supply us with the latest VPN Build 4.14. I can never find time to do my own compilation since my DNS-320L don't support Debain Wheezy.
@ vtverdohleb, my Softether add-on crashed the 3rd time with no good reasons.
