Hi I created last month a test vpn server and today it stopped working. This is what I read in clients log: Mon Sep 14 17:45:17 2020 VERIFY ERROR: depth=1, error=self signed certificate in certificate chain: C=FR, ST=75, L=Paris, O=CAOBA, OU=CAOBA, CN=caoba.fr, emailAddress=supp...@caoba.fr
On the server, I ran this commands: openssl x509 -text -noout -in ca.crt | grep After Not After : Sep 14 05:33:42 2020 GMT openssl x509 -text -noout -in server.crt | grep After Not After : Aug 13 05:33:42 2030 GMT openssl x509 -text -noout -in cassiopeia.crt | grep After Not After : Aug 13 05:35:09 2030 GMT openssl x509 -text -noout -in santiago.crt | grep After Not After : Aug 13 05:50:02 2030 GMT So I don't really remember how much I played around with the KEY_EXPIRE variable but my ca was valid for 30 days but all other certificates were valid for 10 years. What I did today is that I made a new ca certificate using the same old key: openssl x509 -in ca.crt -days 3650 -out ca.crt.new -signkey ca.key mv -i ca.crt ca.crt.20200914 mv -i ca.crt.new ca.crt /etc/init.d/openvpn restart I exported the new ca certificate into the configuration of the clients (cassiopeia and santiago), restarted the service but the client log still says: Tue Sep 14 19:07:26 2020 VERIFY ERROR: depth=1, error=self signed certificate in certificate chain: C=FR, ST=75, L=Paris, O=CAOBA, OU=CAOBA, CN=caoba.fr, emailAddress=supp...@caoba.fr Am I missing something?
