Took me a couple of days to get back to this but removing the crl-verify line produced a working configuration. More troubleshooting revealed that I needed the full path to rw-crl.pem (both manually and with systemctl). Still puzzling why systemd allowed connections but didn't run the script but, with a working configuration I don't have the time luxury to troubleshoot that. Thank you for your help, I certainly appreciate it.

Starting the OpenVPN server with systemctl starts it successfully and a client can connect but the client-connect script doesn't run and no error is reported in the log. Stopping the daemon with systemctl and starting it manually with the below parameters doesn't allow a client to connect, the log shows: CRL: cannot read: rw-crl.pem TLS_ERROR: BIO read tls_read_plaintext error: ... ssl3_get_client_certificate:certificate verify failed TLS Error: TLS object -> incoming plaintext read error TLS Error: TLS handshake failed Starting it manually with the *** only *** change being the removal of the --daemon parameter produces a totally working system. Any idea what is wrong or suggestions? the log file snippet tells you what is failing: CRL: cannot read: rw-crl.pem this means that none of your clients pass verification and never reach the 'client-connect' stage. Comment out the crl line or make the rw-crl.pem file readable and try again.
