I've been able to connect through an IPVanish anonymous server (using the macOS App 1.3.12), to my eyes successfully. However, I get a few error messages in the OpenVPN log output.

My authentication is for SSL/TLS Client, but I can only seem to find one crt file when I download the updated config files from IPVanish, so I'm missing the CA and Key files.

I'm obviously not skilled nor experienced with coding and most of the info I find online is very technical and beyond my understanding. If anyone thinks they can help me, I'd appreciate it.

I figured it out. Sometimes a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. :roll:
