as you can see it tries to connect to Pfsense  and then connection closed... then unraid locks me out.. I gotta physically goto the computer hold the power button to shut it down and then turn back on to be responsive again.. I don't have a monitor hooked to that unraid box  so I cant see what it sees... but anyone know how to fix it so  OpenVPN will connect and not cause unraid to be locked out

I'd guess that OpenVPN is taking over your network connection. You could try plugging a keyboard and monitor directly into the server so a network is not required to see what happens when you type those commands.

 

At a minimum I would stop the array before trying it again, so you don't get an unclean shutdown.

 

But how did you get OpenVPN on Unraid? If this is from a plugin you should post your request in the thread for that plugin. Plugins are not officially supported so your best bet for help would be from other people who use that plugin.
