The OpenVPN Access Server • Re: Client certificates revoked after upgrade to 2.11

Hi Everyone,

Below steps resolved my issue.

Open VPN Access Server Version: 2.8.5, MFA Enabled, User accounts synched with Security Group on the Server via LDAP.
Open VPN Connect Client Version: 3.4.4, TAP-Windows: 9.24.2 (Download location: https://build.openvpn.net/downloads/releases/)

Resolution:

Open VPN Admin Console:
1. Delete the user: User Management >> User Permissions.
2. Revoke Certificate: User Management >> Revoke Certificates

Windows Active Directory Server:
1. Remove the user from the security group >> Apply >> OK,
2. Add the user in the same security group >> Apply >> OK.

Client or Workstation:
1. Delete any previous profiles for the same connection beforehand.
2. Log on to the user console via a web browser to generate the MFA using the authenticator app. Download 'Yourself (user-locked profile)' , client.ovpn file and import the same file in the Open VPN Connect client.
3. Connect the VPN using the Open VPN Connect Client with username, password, and the MFA code.

That is all folks.

Thanking you and warm regards.

Ninad.
