Hey all,
Bit of a newbie here.
I have just set a VPS running OpenVPN. I have installed it via wget https://git.io/vpn -O openvpn-install.sh && bash openvpn-install.sh
Set it to use 443 in install options
All works fine on my client PC using Viscosity client but when I enable the firewall on the VPS - gets stuck at the TLS error below.
I have added TCP and UDP authorise port 443
Client uses UDP as per defaults
Getting TLS error: Key negotiation failed
TLS handshake failed
In the trace , is it not listening properly on 443 ?
Do I need another port open?
Thanks

To add: I have made the config in the OVH Firewall Network and haven't used iptables. I attach a SS.
