post your server conf and client conf to start ..and also the log files(server and client) ..this is like fishing in the dark

I am unable to find any log at windows client,still looking on server,but i noticed this when i typed ps-ef on server: 514 30535 29906 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:12 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30537 29906 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:07 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30539 29906 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:13 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30541 29906 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:08 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30543 29906 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:06 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30545 29906 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:06 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30547 29906 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:06 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30549 29906 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:11 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30597 30543 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:00 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30607 30535 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:00 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30608 30539 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:00 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin 514 30609 30541 0 Jul08 ? 00:00:00 openvpn --errors-to-stderr --config stdin

If you have major problems with the opensource project i suggest using OpenVPN access server, which is their enterprise version. Its 5$ per concurrent connection / year and is dick easy. Also comes with two connections free, if you only need two clients to the server.

Well i did noticed solutions like comodo encrypted vpn,but what is disturbing they log everything what you surf,and what is point of using anonymity service if someone log what you do?And all that because of potential "cyber criminal"which is complete nonsense.

No, go to openvpn.net and click on their access-server product. You can have a server with two clients free, and its very easy for people that are not versed with the open source project.
