I have had openvpn3 working since F35, including on a laptop that I
originally installed openvpn3 on and it has been upgraded to F36 and now
F37, and openvpn3 is working fine.
However, on my new laptop with a fresh install of F37, I cannot get
openvpn3 to work. The config manager seems to be OK, but the session
manager is totally broken.
Made some progress with more careful examination of the systems where it
works and where it doesn't, and it turns out that there is also an
openvpn3-client package that has to be installed as well as openvpn3. This
didn't occur to me because the openvpn3 client binary was installed. But
when I installed openvpn3-client, the missing binary for the session
manager was installed. So now I can get a little farther; I just need to
figure out why user authentication is failing (I've tried it on the old
system so I can verify I have the correct user name and password, and I
have tried it enough times on the new system to rule out simple password
typo as the cause). So now I can execute the session-start command, and it
does prompt me for the username and password, but always returns
authentication failure.
