Hi all,
I’ve been trying off and on over the last few days to set up a VPN connection to amprnet to use my new allocation.
I’m not succeeding on multiple linux machines and a macOS device and seeing a couple of the same errors -
OpenSSL: error:0B080074:x509 certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch
Cannot load private key file /etc/openvpn/client.key
Error: private key password verification failed
The first is related to, I assume, my user certificate - is this a fatal error and am I doing something wrong, has the advice changed from `cat certs/user certs/authorities > client.crt`?
Secondly, the password verification is confusing me - I have just imported a new tqsl cert generated this week, and in tqsl it advises me there’s no certificate passphrase. I’m not sure what to do here - if I try and export a .p12 from tqsl, and generate keys from that, I am asked for a password too and that ends in no progress.
I see the same errors in tunnelblick on MacOS.
Is there any reason I’m being asked for a password? My current LoTW password doesn’t resolve this. My concern is that there is some password I’m missing from when the certificate was first generated years ago and that now prevents me from accessing the VPN.
Cheers & 73

I'm trying to configure a gateway with Debian and ampr-ripd never responds. I tried several tutorials and it never works.
My network structure is as follows;
eth0 (192.168.0.10) --> (192.168.0.1) [router(mkrotik)] (192.168.70.100) --> (192.168.70.1) [router (mikrotik)] --> ISP
(I know, it's a little strange but I need the 2 mikrotiks)
I have configured my external IP (it is in bridge mode) with a dyndns. For this test the firewall is completely open.
First I create the tunnel:
ip tunnel add ampr0 mode ip local 192.168.0.10 ttl 64
ip link set dev ampr0 up
ip addr add 44.153.x.x/32 dev ampr0
ifconfig ampr0 multicast
Then I add the path:
ip rule add to 44.0.0.0/8 table 44 priority 44
Finally I launch ampr-ripd:
ampr-ripd -a 44.153.0.0/16 -i ampr0 -t 44 -d
This process never receives a response.
Is there some configuration missing or am I misunderstanding the process? Maybe the mikrotiks are missing some configuration? (are the connections under NAT)?
Is there anyone who might be able to help me with a DNS entry? I'm trying to replicate something over the weekend that I've been experiencing at home.
I sent a note to hostmaster(a)ardc.net last week but I'm sure whoever answers that has been tied up. Entry I'm looking for is:
wvgw.kc8qba.ampr.org ADD A 44.63.19.14
Thanks in advance,

Somehow the output of the API call must have changed over time. It now
includes a count value before the encap array data, which will lead to an
error when processing it with jq.
Please update wiki the page with a different jq filter, c.f. how I fixed
the script on our system. I am ignoring the count value.
