Locked out of SoftEther VPN Manager [SOLVED]

Post by ak2766 » Thu Dec 10, 2015 11:09 pm

Hi there.

In playing with a myriad of settings and trying to understand how SoftEther works, I appear to have locked myself out of the VPN server manager. I believe I stopped all listening ports and put the hub in offline state then closed server manager. Now I can no longer connect.

Tried restarting the server from the services console but still no joy - help!

Cheers,
ak.

EDIT: Is re-installation the only option? Do I then have to setup everything from scratch?

SOLVED

I navigated to
[code]
cd C:\Program Files\SoftEther VPN Server
notepad vpn_server.config
[/code]

Modified the data for one of the ports (992) and changed:
[code]
declare Listener0
{
bool DisableDos false
bool Enabled [color=red]true[/color]
uint Port 992
}
[/code]

Cheers,
ak.
