Anyone use Pritunl?
I just set up Pritunl yesterday. I got it working and everything. But I have a problem with the "Bind ip address" option. When ever I enter the ip address to bind to, i can't connect to the server.
The ip address is a bought ip i added to the eth0 interfaces file (it pings).

Did you start the server? You have to start the VPN server after you make it.
Hey Awmusic! Yeah its started on the webpanel. If I remove the ip bind address, I can connect to it but it'll just use the vps' default ip address, but as soon as I add the my added ip address (used a ip alias guide to add the extra ip ) my pritunl client won't connect. Gives me a "

Now if i add a made up ip address like 111.111.111.111 it'll give me
TCP/UDP: Socket bind failed on local address [AF_INET]11.11.111.111:10220: Cannot assign requested address Exiting due to fatal error
but if i put in the correct ip address
Initialization Sequence Completed COM> SUCCESS: bytecount interval changed
and the server goes online.
I go to download the newest profile, and i can't connect.
Its almost as if my ip address I added is not set up to allow internet or something, even though i can ping it.
@jacno Do you have any firewall (iptables, etc.) installed?
@doghouch no i just reinstalled a stock ubuntu os and installed pritunl. Should i install a firewall?
edit: nvm i just checked, i have iptables installed.
Make sure the port is open (accept)
You need 80, 443 (if LE SSL) and 1025 to 65355

I used it on many servers for many months, or maybe a year, then it wrecked itself somehow and the developer is incredibly arrogant. I gave up on it. But when it worked, it was a great solution.
I might give it another go sometime.
I found that when an ovz Ubuntu 16.04 gets updated, pritunl crashes and the interface returns a error 500. Doesn't happen on KVM though.
I followed that guide @thraciandog , along with the opening ports section. I also tried debiean 8, ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04. I ended up giving up on it
