output:


To reconfigure manually, use the /usr/local/openvpn_as/bin/ovpn-init tool.

(password can be changed on Admin UI)

But when I visit https://{ip}:943/admin or https://{ip}:943 the broswer timeout and I get no response back, I tried searching on solutions online but so far I didn't find any fixes.

I tried:

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
