VPN: Remote Access set-up (UTM side) using local authentication - Getting "recv_line: TCP port read failed on recv()"

Steve Munday

Hi, I'm trying to set-up VPN to my UTM 9 so I can connect from "Open" networks back to a (more) secure position.

Here's what I've done thus far, any advice/guidance/pointers would be very much appreciated.

UTM: 9.510-5
Pattern version: 153278

Steps taken:

Issue:

  • When connecting with OpenVPN (2.4.6) from Windows 10 I'm getting "recv_line: TCP port read failed on recv()" and the VPN connection just continues to retry
  • Also tried the UTM User Portal version of VPN client & Windows 10 "built in" VPN client - same error
  • Have checked Dr. GOOGLE and Sophos communities however there doesn't seem to be a definitive explanation/root cause/resolution.
  • I've also updated the TAP driver although not sure that's the issue here (from a non-expert standpoint).

 

  1. First, what does "recv_line: TCP port read failed on recv()" actually (really) mean?
  2. Second, as I've tried 3 different (Windows 10) clients and get the same "error" my presumption is that my UTM 9 configurtion is at fault however I'm struggling to see where based upon following the .pdf link above

    Steve, try a Google on:

    site:community.sophos.com/products/unified-threat-management/f ssl vpn win 10 "Non-OpenVPN client protocol detected"

    Please let us know what you found that helped.  If you want to pursue this here, open the SSL VPN Live Log and then sign into the VPN.

    Bob,

    Hi and thanks for the suggestion which I'm currently working through.

    Can you tidy up a misunderstanding I have please?

    I've seen loads of Posts about the UTM client NOT working within Windows 10 and then I saw

    https://community.sophos.com/products/unified-threat-management/f/vpn-site-to-site-and-remote-access/55252/ssl-vpn-without-client

    ... implying that my SSL approach won't work and that only PPTP and L2TP/IPsec "will" work.

    Have I understood things correctly in that there's no point me going down the SSL path and that PPTP and L2TP/IPsec is my route to salvation?

    I think it does work, Steve, but that there were several issues.  I prefer SSL VPN over PPTP and L2TP/IPsec if you don't want all traffic to go through the tunnel.

    You might try downloading the OpenVPN client from their site.  I won't have a chance to test this with the Sophos client under Win10 until Thursday evening or Friday morning.

    Cheers - Bob

    Bob,

    Here's the Firewall (SSL VPN) and OpenVPN logs for a failed session using OpenVPN client.  I see the same "Non-OpenVPN client protocol detected" message for the Windows 10 (built in) and Sophos UTM clients.

    Steve, are you sure that your client isn't behind a firewall that knows how to block traffic by application and that OpenVPN is blocked?

    Bob,

    Hi, when I do my "testing" I am using my iPhone's "Hot spot" and connect my Laptop through that to mimic being "outside" the home network.

    Steve, can you connect directly from the iPhone with the OpenVPN app?  How about from the laptop through a public hotspot?

    Cheers - Bob

    Bob,

    Hi, good morning.

    I downloaded the OpenVPN app and pointed it at the UTM however it didn't succeed, SSL VPN excerpt below:

    2018:11:09-10:33:04 firewall openvpn[27856]: 185.69.145.154:46382 SIGTERM[soft,port-share-redirect] received, client-instance exiting

    I've not had a chance to test via a "public" hotspot as yet.

    Is this you attempting to connect with your phone through the external interface when you're not on local WiFi, Steve?

    Bob,

    Hi, sorry for the delay.

    Yes, I turn my WiFi "off", use my 4G and act as a "hot spot".  When connecting "through" the iPhone (using 4G) I (still) can't access the VPN target, logs previously provided.

    I'm out of questions, Steve.  If a reboot doesn't help, I'd get some backups off the UTM and re-image from ISO.  ANy better luck with that?

    Cheers - Bob

    Bob,

    Hi, sorry for the delay in responding.

    I'm waiting for new (DR) hardware to arrive so I can flip/flop between existing and a "clean/restored" Firewall to see what VPN throws up.

    Bob,

    Extra kit (same as current but newer spec) has arrived however the UTM 9 install seems to hang once it acknowledges it can detect the Realtek TRL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigbit Ethernet controller (from /var/log/messages) also known as RTL8111/8168/8411 having run lspci command.

    BIOS is dated July 2018 so would appear to be up-to-date although I can't find how/where to find possible newer version of the MSI motherboard BIOS as none of the numbers I have listed on the BIOS screen turn up anything on their site!

    I was going to try an "old" (pre 9.5) UTM however the MySophos site is struggling to verify my Account at the moment so need to wait for that to be cleared up first.

    Update
    Having read through various Posts I've decided to plump for a https://www.pondesk.com/product/Intel-J1900-4-LAN-3G4G-WiFi-Firewall-Router-Fanless-Mini-PC_MNHO-043 as it has INTEL NICs rather than Reaktek.

    Update2
    Installed UTM 9.510-5 on to the replacement (fully INTEL NIC'd) mini-PC.  Will review existing configuration and manually xfer the configuration rather than restoring a "backup" to avoid introducing any mis-configured VPN related definitions.

    Bob,

    Hi, I've manually xferred all the rules/definitions and also swapped out the HW (for the all-INTEL NIC kit).  So far so good, all working as expected.

    Next is to step through the VPN confiiguration tasks and see where that takes me.
