Re: [Openvpn-users] Old Configuration keeps showing up on Windows XP

Hi Guus,

please make sure that
- there's no 'ip persist' file in the openvpn directory on the clients
- make sure you restart the openvpn instance on the *server* as well: it 
sounds like you're connecting to an old config.

HTH,
