Strongswan version 5.8.0

Open evilsi opened this issue 5 years ago • 5 comments

There are changes to Strongswan which means this configuration no longer works. install these only: apt install strongswan strongswan-pki libstrongswan-extra-plugins

Generate the client certificate but specify --size 4096 #ipsec pki --gen --size 4096 --outform pem > "${USERNAME}Key.pem"

copy the certificates in to the folders like this: (variations breaks the authentication) #/etc/ipsec.d/certs - clientCert.pem #/etc/ipsec.d/private - clientKey.pem & client.p12 #/etc/ipsec.d/cacerts - VpnServerRoot.cer

remove 'leftauth=eap-tls' from /etc/ipsec.conf

Those guides really need an update. I've spent two evenings now trying to setup up an azure vpn using either OpenVPN or Strongswan and connect to it using any guides I have come across, and I have yet to successfully authenticate even once.

I am in the same situation. @TethysSvensson did you find a method that worked?

No. We gave up and my friend had to switch to windows.
