Followed this guide on my server:

I have all the files in the right places, imported my client.conf into network manager in ubuntu (after installing network-manager-openvpn on the pc), and I have set my client VPN keys, certs, and the ca.crt on my client chmod 0776.

When I go to connect, I am getting a 'Connection to the VPN timed out' error. My laptop is wirelessy connecting to my router, and I have put my laptop in the Demilitarized zone of my router. My /var/log/syslog is below:

Mar 2 17:41:59 adam-laptop NetworkManager: <info> VPN service 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn' just appeared, activating connections

Any one have any ideas?

You really don't want your key to be so permissive - I think 0600 is more correct.
