TROUBLESHOOTING
===============
On networks with very few working nodes compared to the total number of
registered nodes, it may take some time to bootstrap. However, if you really
think something goes wrong, you should first enable OpenVPN logs and increase
verbosity: see commented directives in configuration generated by `re6st-conf`.
A common failure is caused by a misconfigured firewall:
- re6st launches several OpenVPN processes. Those in client mode may connect to
any TCP/UDP port in IPv4. Server processes only listen to ports specified
by ``--pp`` option.
- OpenVPN always aborts due to inactivity timeout when Babel paquets are
filtered. UDP port 6696 must be open on link-local IPv6 of all interfaces
managed by Babel.
Other security components may also break re6st. For example, default SELinux
configuration on Fedora prevents execution of OpenVPN server processes.
