Hi, I'm trying to set up a VPN server using OpenVPN and I'm getting some errors while trying to connect the client to the server. I'm getting the following error:
Sun Feb 13 14:54:16 2011 OpenVPN 2.1.4 i686-pc-linux-gnu [SSL] [LZO2] [EPOLL] built on Feb 5 2011
Sun Feb 13 14:54:16 2011 IMPORTANT: OpenVPN's default port number is now 1194, based on an official port number assignment by IANA. OpenVPN 2.0-beta16 and earlier used 5000 as the default port.

I have bridge-utils installed and tap0 shows up in ifconfig. Can anybody give me a hand? Thanks in advance.
