Today using this blog post, I set up an openvpn server. When I check the service status using
systemctl status [email protected]
everything's seemed to be fine. This is the log of the systemctl
command:

But on my local laptop when I use nc
command to check the port availability I don't get any responses:
nc -u 54.37.**.*** 57055
Also from my phone with the openvpn application I just get timeout error when import the created config and trying to connect it. Here are also some (maybe) useful logs.
