Re: [Openvpn-users] tun Device Error --try 2

John,

It was the sales.up script that is incorrect.  It worked as soon as I 
commented out that line in my .conf file.

I appreciate yours and Dick's comments.  You guys are life-savers.

I may have questions about my sales.up script.  So, stay tuned.

Thanks, Ryan
