my boss didn't take my advice and get a cisco concentrator or even a ASA so i have to make our watchguard vpn work.. which is kind of crap.. anyways i'm trying to get open vpn working with it because the ssl client for firebox's is kind of lacking to say the least.

now i'm having some slight issues after open vpn was installed. something seems to be wrong with the config files. i get a error of
Options error: Unrecognized option or missing parameter(s) in client.ovpn:8: remote-cert-eku (2.0.9)

client config file

dev tun
client
proto tcp-client
ca ca.crt
cert client.crt
key client.pem
tls-remote "/O=WatchGuard_Technologies/OU=Fireware/CN=Fireware_SSLVPN_Server"
remote-cert-eku "TLS Web Server Authentication"
remote 208.xxx.xxx.xxx 443
remote 65.xxx.xxx.xxx 443

am i missing something? anyone ever made this work? thanks.
 
On the firebox did you configure the vpn user manually or did you use the wizard? I had some issues connecting with it when i ran it manually it went so far but got to the user and rejected it, switched over the wizard to create the user and config and it worked fine, althought i was using their client software and imported the .wgx file in the end. just an idea to bounce around.
