XR500 Custom Hybrid AWS VPN not working
I can connect to my vpn with the .ovpn files generated from the AWS debian 10 buster linux server with or without password(made 2 .ovpn accounts, one with pass, one without) on both a pc and mac. ...
Thank you, while I look over this do you know which OpenVPN version this will be using?

- Thank you, I think the issue is that it's trying to authenticate with the user/pass as part of the config but we don't support that. Can they provide a new config where you can input the user/pass outside the config?
This is the error in Custom VPN Hybrid with no user/pass .ovpn:
