If that is the case it's a recent change. That command just flings packets at the remote target. I don't think there is a reason for there to be a response. Just to be sure tried that command here. I get the same behavior with that exact command between systems that have a working openvpn connection on port 1194 udp. Therefore I think that command doesn't do what you think it will do. I see the packets at the both ends. But there isn't any reason for the server to respond to them. > Thanks for any further ideas, Peter E. If joule is getting connection-refused from dalton then there must be a reason for it. Do the packets arrive at dalton? You should be able to see this with tcpdump. tcpdump -lni any port 1194 Bob
