b} Various Troubleshootings:

1)VPN is connected but cant browse net

a) make sure You have installed tap driver from their folder . and if usig win
vista/7/8, run with administartor

privilege

b) make sure, u have following lines in your openvpn config coz it is most
probably caused due to faulty

routing in your own PC.

route-method exe
route-delay 2

c) Still facing problem. That means, your windows directory is not C: . Now
add this magic line

to solve that routing problem too

win-sys env
d) Only for vpnbook

Well, I myself cant figure out what is the probem. But there is two
workaround of this solution..

1) delete this line

dhcp-option DISABLE-NBT

and change

dev tun1

to

dev tun

2) connect for the first time. U cant browse. Now dont disconnect. Use the
reconnect button.
This second time, u can browse

2) My vpn is disconnecting:

remeber to add this line in ur config

reneg-sec 0

3) I am having replay attack error

add these lines in your config

verb 1
mute-replay-warnings

Later, I will add more tutorials according to your problems. But i think, these
covers most of your probems those having problems with disconnection or
any other problem, I am giving u a generic config file.

Just change remote ip , proxy , host and authentication file according to ur


need . Remember to replace

the stars

remote **.**.**.** **
proto tcp
client
dev tun
route-method exe
route-delay 2
redirect-gateway
tun-mtu 1500
tun-mtu-extra 32
pull
persist-key
nobind
mssfix 1450
verb 1
auth-user-pass **.auth
comp-lzo
reneg-sec 0
inactive 1200 50000
float
hand-window 120
persist-local-ip
persist-remote-ip
auth-retry nointeract
mute-replay-warnings
redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp
ca ca.crt
win-sys env
http-proxy-timeout 9
http-proxy **.**.**.**
http-proxy-option AGENT 'Opera/9.80 (J2ME/MIDP; Opera Mini/528.16
(iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 3.0 like Mac OS X;

en-us; compatible; Googlebot/870; U; en) Presto/2.4.15'


http-proxy-option EXT1 'Host:**.**.**.**'
http-proxy-option EXT2 'X-Online-Host:**.**.**.**/'

Explaining the lines where Most u stuck and ask what to do :

1. remote **.**.**.** **

put the remote vpn ip here . I.e, download your config files from original vpn
site. For

example,

u will see 74.91.22.28 443.... here 74.91.22.28 is the vpn ip, and 443 is the
port and mind it, IT IS RPORT.

change the port no according to your need .

i.e here 443 is used. That mans u will be using 443 config. change to 80 to
use port 80 config

2.proto tcp

it is the protocol u r using. So , if u want to use tcp protocol,


use

proto tcp

and if u want to use udp protocol,


use
proto udp

Make sure if u r changing remote port as said in 1st point, change to


corresponding protocol to. and remember

one thing, U can only use http proxy


options, host options with tcp protocl only and only tcp protocol.

3. nobind

Now this is intersting ....

use nobind if u dont want to use any lport ... otherwise if u want to use
LPORT

replace nobind with

lport ****

here , replace **** with desired lport

4. verb 1

It is verbose mode. So, if u want us to solve any error, make sure u make
this

verb 3

and post the error log.

5. auth-user-pass **.auth

now **.auth is the authentication file. So, lets say, U have saved ur
username and passwd in

pass.auth file, make sure , u write this line as

auth-user-pass pass.auth
