Great setup and interesting projects. I wish I had the same skills. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you CC. I really appreciate the advice.

That’s very clear. Thanks for taking the time to explain it CC. If I toggle the OpenVPN port to UDP does it effect anything else meaning do I need to change anything else? Eg do I need to issue the OpenVPN cert again. Or is it as simple as just toggling it?

Thanks catcamstar. I have it all up and running on my remote laptop and ipad (access via OpenVPN) but I will take the opportunity to ask you one question that has me wondering. When I toggled RDP on the host Computer it states that the app is running on xxxx port number. I am accessing this...

Ok. Great. Thanks for the advice. I’ll do that.

At the moment I have router - BI server - switch - cameras. Are you suggesting router - switch - BI server and camera’s? Thanks

I have OpenVPN up and running on my Asus router (RT-AC86U) and can access the BI remote GUI outside of my LAN. The desktop is currently connected directly to my router. It all works fine and when I am away from my property and I just turn OpenVPN on and insert the local ip and port number into...

For me it was the diff between it working or not working. Obviously it’s bypassing some other issue that I had.

Thanks TL1096r. I was doing what your link said but the commentary below that tutorial prompted me to change the task schedule to run “after login” in lieu of “at startup“. That worked for me.

I had tried this before fenderman and Task Manager showed that Blue Iris task had run and that BI was up. But it wasntt. Also after I do that the BI shortcut on my desktop wont open BI. It shows a quick glimpse of the BI good morning start up screen and then nothing thereafter. If I go into...

My system runs at a remote site which is an eight hour round trip to service. I use OpenVPN to login when I am away and like to see the ui up. the cameras instantly and have the software fully running.

I initially Went down the path you suggested above but couldn’t get it to work properly Fenderman. I know you say it’s easy and it’s about attention to detail (I’ve checked and checked the task properties) but for me it wouldn’t auto start. I could “run“ it from within Task Scheduler but it...

This was so simple and exactly what I wanted. Thanks ponyboy.

My issues were related to using Dropbox as the link for the client file which OpenVPN Connect didn’t like for some reason. I got this enlightenment when I ditched the iPhone and iPad for a while and achieved success in getting a connection on my laptop. It was then apparent that my road block...

Thanks Catcamstar. I will look into the embedded certificate option which I have also seen mentioned elsewhere.
