I've had an Unraid server for a couple years, now I'm trying to build one for dad.  Unraid install went fine, created shares, disks, users, etc.

  First sign of trouble was trying to get windows to see an SMB share. after playing with it a while I did get it connected to a public share, I haven't attempted to make it private since getting it working at all.  

  Second sign of trouble was when I attempted to connect to Remote SMB share from Tower1 6.2.4 to Tower2 6.3.5 using the unassigned devices button.  "Search for Servers in Workgroup" finds tower2 but is unable to "Load Shares" (ie populate the available shares field list) It searches for ~60 sec then returns with nothing in the drop down list.  This still doesn't work.   I just tried going the other direction, from Tower2 to find Tower1.  First button finds the computer in Workgroup but the second doesn't find any shares.

  Third sign of trouble, I just installed OpenVPN (linuxserver.io) using all defaults on both Tower1 and Tower2 for the first time on each. After starting the docker, the WebUI won't come up on tower2.  It does come up on tower1. Tower2 shows the message below.

 

Please help identify what's wrong with Tower2 that I can't connect to it?

 

I've verified the following.  verified USB is labeled UNRAID, restarted computer, docker and container, uninstalled and reinstalled openVPN. 

 

Any ideas?  Thanks

Connection Refused message.

This site can’t be reached

192.168.0.107 refused to connect.

Try:

• Checking the connection
• Checking the proxy and the firewall

ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

 

Post up your diagnostics file (   Tools   >>>   Diagnostics  ) in your next post.   Where did the "Connection Refused message" come from?   (If it came from a PC, provide the OS information and browser/file manager details.) 

Sorry, I knew that I should do that, but it was late and I forgot  

 

The unraid GUI works fine from Win10 PC both Chrome and whatever MS is calling Internet Explorer these days.  Same results from Android cellphone on wifi. Both browsers and android pointing to openvpn gui (https://192.168.0.107:943/) is giving ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED message. 

I was attempting to install openvpn on two unraid servers at the same time, following instructions here. I'd progressed to 2:14 into the video when Tower1 matched the video but Tower2 gave the ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED message.

any ideas?

I found a program called zenmap and ran a scan, openvpn is trying to use 943 but this tool didn't discover it as an open port.  So why isn't it open, how can I make it open?

 

thx

hmmm.  I just ran the same tool against the first working tower. it does not show 943 as an open port but this https://192.168.0.197:943/?src=connect does show the openvpn gui.

If I change the install to Bridge instead of Port then I get the GUI but documentation I've read so far says I need to run as Host.  thoughts...?

If you’re using the LSIO docker, you might try posting in that support thread.

I expected this was a problem, bigger than the LSIO docker since I'm trying to install it on two different unraid servers at the same time, the older server works, the newer doesn't.  And I've been unable to connect to the SMB share on Tower2.
