Hi, I've been trying to use openvpn & applet for a while now with no luck, I've tried everything mentioned in this thread : http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=37559 but to no avail, so I hope someone can help me out here .

I have Openvpn running on a remote server, successfully connected to it using openvpn-gui on my windows machine, I've installed openvpn/applet on the n900, downloaded the files I needed from the server (linux server, downloaded files through gftp directly to the n900), now when I import the client.ovpn using the applet it detects all the files (key,cert...etc) but if I try to connect I get a "starting connection" message and nothing happens (applet shows no active connections), if I try the test button sometimes it shows a white log window that stays empty and sometimes even the window doesn't show up .

I've tried copy/paste the contents of the files into new leafpad files and saved them on the n900 (to avoid unicode problems), removed all lines with # from the client.ovpn file, still no luck

when running the follwing command in terminal :
openvpn --connect client.ovpn

I get the following error :
options error : unrecognized option or missing parameter(s) in [CMD-LINE]:1: connect (2.1.1)

Any help would be much appreciated, atm I use ssh/tsocks combo to surf the net, but it's a bit too much everytime I need to connect, since I can't use direct internet in my country atm due to fear of bigBrother monitoring everything (living in S.Y.R.I.A) and openvpn would really simplify things for me

p.s : some nokia repos are blocked here, so the first time i tried to install openvpn through app manager it wasn't able to find "bash" and refused to install, I fired FAPman with tsocks through SSH, removed openvpn, and reinstalled it with bash 3, not sure if this is of any relation, also in the /etc/openvpn directory i found a maemo-update-resolvconf file that starts with #!/bin/bash , could this be of any relation to my problem ?

Thanks in advance
