Hello. I bought a VPS Ubuntu 16.04.4 from digitalocean.
Used putty for remote connection to the machine
set up open-vpn using linux commands
Downloaded open vpn client.
Use my loginid and password but it gives this result
Unable to obtain Session ID from X.X.X.242:443: XML-RPC: ConnectionRefusedError: 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it…
Any help?
