Hi all,
I just setup an Openfire server (v. 3.6.2) on a test server, and I am having some trouble with Spark connecting from across a VPN Tunnel.
My server is setup in our main office, and clients can connect and chat with spark with no issues.
However, our branch office no clients can connect. They try to connect with spark, and all that happens is Spark will sit at “Authenticating” for about a minute, then come back with “Invalid username or password”
I have verified that the branch office can reach the remote server & port, and it can resolve the name without issues.
The users are populated from our Active Directory, so they are valid.
The user accounts (a few test accounts) are able to login from the main office.
The debug log on the server only shows:

On the client side, only the Warn.log gets anything:

I have the server to Require TLS, and old SSL is available…
The odd thing is that a connection can be established using the Old SSL method (which i’d rather not use)
Any ideas on what might be the issue, or anything I can do to try and further debug what’s happening?
