REPEAT post
since my previous attempt was blocked due to excessive size...

Now I have performed the following:
- Stopped the VPN services on the test server
- Made sure that verb 4 is in effect in the server conf file
- Changed logging from log-append to just log so old stuff is erased
- Started the tunnel-only service on the test server at 00:24:10

Next on the RPI client:
- verified that verb 4 is in the client conf file
- Connected successfully to the server (at 00:25:53)

Then on the Windows 10 client:
- verified verb 4 also here
- Started a connection attempt at 00:27:03
- Noted that (as expected) the connection failed, showing TLS error after 60s
- Disconnected the client connection attempts at 00:28:30

Finally on the RPi client:
- Disconnected (using Ctrl-C in the terminal) VPN at 00:29:00
- Retrieved the client log file

Then retrieved the logs as follows (long post...):

Now trying to attach compressed logfiles rather than adding the text right
