Hi folks

After a long absence from OpenVPN I am running into the self signed 
certificate error all of a sudden.

Tue Apr 08 14:47:53 2014 UDPv4 link local: [undef]
Tue Apr 08 14:47:53 2014 UDPv4 link remote: 212.41.199.16:1194
Tue Apr 08 14:47:53 2014 TLS: Initial packet from 212.41.199.16:1194, 
sid=dbc1ed8a 60de5e5e
Tue Apr 08 14:47:58 2014 VERIFY ERROR: depth=1, error=self signed 
certificate in certificate chain: 
/C=CH/L=Aarau/O=KKG_Aarau/CN=KKG_Aarau_OpenVPN_CA
Tue Apr 08 14:47:58 2014 TLS_ERROR: BIO read tls_read_plaintext error: 
error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate 
verify failed

Of course there is a self signed certificate in the chain, there must 
be. There is always a root which is not signed by anyone else.

OK I never ran into this before and all the good ideas on the net are 
'recreate the certificate'. This is not an option as it might make the 
error disappear, I still don't know why it is there at all and that 
needs explaining.

Another Solution on the net is typically.... upgrade to a recent 
release. Well I believe in software decay but at that level... so not an 
optoion either.

Anyone found a _real_ reason for this error?

Thanks

Erich
